Is that a crack in the stock just under cheek rest, extending towards the butt? Any date code visible? Thank you

Just a production flaw. Like a blade cut. Date code BB.

Can't get to it at the moment, but pretty sure it's a slow round ball twist.

BigSkyRambler · Oct 3, 2024

Yes, like the originals, I presume.

BigSkyRambler · Oct 3, 2024

I was asked about sparking.

That's the rules after all.

I’m still trying to understand this. I see no opinions in this thread. @BigSkyRambler in his first post said he did not know who the maker was. One of the photos shows the DGG logo of early Armi San Paolo products and I posted as a helpful bit of information, for which BigSky thanked me and then corrected the listing. All other posts in this thread prior to yours were legitimate questions to the seller. So tell me please, what rule was violated?

I believe he Moderators removed a post that violated the rules. My notices show a comment that does not appear.

Ach-so! Thanks for the clarification!

Ok, you got me, i should have said Comments, not Opinions.
But It isn't hard to understand at all. We constantly get reports about this. I removed Four separate posts.

If someone is making comments about how they had owned one just like it in 78 caliber, how they'd owned one made by the Marx Brothers, that Bubba Killem had carried one while circumnavigating Pine Buff, All are in violation of the rules.

This is An Ad, not a forum for discussion.
If one takes the time to read rule 23 it's Easy to Understand.
