Looks like the colorado cool aid was strong that day.

That's disturbing.

[Emri]

Seems to have had a little trouble getting it right the first time !!

[Johnny in Texas]

and then the small crossed cannon for good measure.

[Rick the Librarian]

If you don't get it right the first time, try the 2nd ... and the 3rd ...

Practice make's perfect, sometimes. I like that R in the cutoff, that took some orginal thinking.

[Marine A5 Sniper Rifle]

Wow, that sucker was stamped often. I presume someone is selling stamps?

What a shame...it looks like a nice stock otherwise. What was the guy thinking...one cartouche=good, three cartouches=better? Reminds me of a Remington-UMC M1911 I was offered once. Somebody had done an absolutely magnificent finish restoration...a really perfect job of brush-bluing. Apparently the inspector's initials ended up washed out, for they had been re-cut. Only problem was, instead of the correct "E.E.C.", the restorer had cut "F.F.V." I passed on it; kind of wish I had bought it now.

[CptEnglehorn]

darn rare stock to have been inspected all those times.

[mack]

And to have escaped any sign of use between those myriad inspections. Truly amazing.

[Peconga]

I was so awed by all the untouched original cartouches, that I almost missed the gorilla glue oozing out where the forend was spliced back on.

Snort.

Someone likes it alot, $390 alot plus postage.

A P.T. Barnum disciple, perhaps?

Just a thought.

The old adage, "You live long enough, you see everything" comes to mind...

[Weasel]

Find a sucker bang his ears.
