After reviewing the pictures again, I see that I am incorrect on the stock as it is apparently a type "C". I also quoted the price incorrectly as $1200 not the correct $1400'

Sorry you got a bad egg on your face, I suffered a similar with a replica M-40 from a chap when I said the thing was a piece of junket of which I took pictures of the cruddy thing, I wanted my money back he shorted me $300 for the postal/Insurance to and from Australia for postage. Learned a big lesson from the episode look through the smoke for the real person.
I do not deal with this shyster at all anymore he is a total w*nker he also stuffed a mates pristine No.4 action putting pads on it to make a faker T up which he advertises that he does my mate had to buy another rifle and get a more qualified gunsmith to do the job correctly.

If you have brought 20 odd guns from him I just wonder at what cost to you unknowingly lesson learned I guess but do not let it affect your search for desirable rifles, now you know the existence of this site and the free help and advice the real knowledge base offers then as Calif-Steve says post the pic wait for the answers then decide, not right no pay simple and better for you.

Goes to show how starting with a false premise leads to a flawed conclusion. Just because all the complete rifles made in 1938 were NM doesn't mean that only complete rifles were made. In FY38 almost 16,000 more receivers were made than complete rifles.

Therefore, Socrates was a cat.

Uh, nope.

All cats die.

Therefore, Socrates was a cat.

Bwahaha! Thanks for this.
