I haven't seen any comments on this one. The close ups of the roll marks is a bit foggy. Anyone here know anything about it?

Pictures so consistently out of focus that markings look fake. A known serial number, but how many are known. -

for that amount of money, the buyer , I think would need his head examined..........For this amount of money the buyer deserves some form of credible authenticity.

The serial number of the pistol is 800247 which is documented as being refinished. It seems to have a correct barrel but not original to the gun and that seems to be the case for the magazine and possibly grips as well. Nice correct specimen but not original. I've seen this gun on another forum and have talked to the seller as well./Ken Hill

Johnny, my reference to "documented could have been clearer. The documentation I refer to is my known Singer list. 247 has been on it for a while as refinished. The barrel, mag and grips are not listed./Ken Hill

Bid retraction. It was up to $82K now back down to $70K. I guess the high bidder read this forum or got info from somewhere else that the pistol had been refinished and confronted the seller about it.Comment
