Hi Sarg,

Thanks for that. Re originality of finish and barrel length - once I did a basic diss-assemble I had a good look at all parts, finish etc and I'm reasonably confident that both the barrel and finish are original. I'm no expert so can't guarantee 100% but I cannot find any tell-tail signs of ether the barrel being cut down and/or refinishing done. The finish overall is clean but shows consistent wear with all (metal) parts and when looking closely at the markings/engraving in comparison to the finish, all looks untampered with.

I thought the same when I first got it, especially regards the short barrel but for the life of me, all looks good and original. Needless to say I was pretty chuffed. Just a few minor issues and of course a full re-stock would really bring this old girl back to life.

Cheers, Roy.
