    Decals are definitely fake.

    As for the shell, i haven't studied these much, but I would guess its a poor Chinese copy from the looks of it.

    Oh yeah. That's a wonky bird.

    As Alex said, shell bad too IMO.
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

    The fact that there is rust only in the stampings already seems kind of odd doesn't it, usually that's the place where you will end up keeping most of the paint.. and also dirt, but the lot number kind of seems like they added it after painting, overall seems like a Chinese repro, very similar to one I have for reenacting, that one also had no markings.

    It is good that you posted this one before laying out your cash. A stinker! Don't buy it.
