Figured Id share this one with you....   she's a beauty in my eyes.     Looks original to me, but the more qualified guys I'm sure will help me out with that on here.  :)

Nice as-issued Sino-Banian there!  It's a 1Q 2014 import.  The stock finish flaking is unfortunate, but I wouldn't mess with it.  You don't see them with original undickered stocks so often.  thumb1

Agreed! I'd also leave the stock as found. That's about as good a stock finish as you can expect out of those imports from Albania; 90-95% had less finish than that one.

1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms... It doesn't matter how many Lenins you get out on the street begging for them to be taken.
