Hi Luca,
I like it. A nice example of a type 2.3 with the short block hinge, banjo pin and flat wire catch in my opinion. Wait and see what others come up with.
Regards, Ned.

Tough badge to find in original condition-much less intact. I can see nothing glaringly wrong with it, in the photos. I would be fine with having this one in the collection if the price was reasonable, of course. Sellers know well the rarity of these pieces and quite often get wild with their asking prices.

I know I've been looking for one of these for a while at a fair price but as William said, prices are wacko....

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

I guess it is also referred to as a coke bottle but check out this site for different styles of banjo pins..

Thanks for help..I know that they are very highly priced
The seller wants 2500 euro and i think it s a Little bit High considering the worn conditions...
2500E is horrendous...
