Re: What if ....
I'd buy one in a heartbeat. At prices like was suggested it would be something I could afford and well, I figure people in China need to eat too.
Now if an American company would produce the same gun for the same price... well I hope someone will let me know when that happens.

That thing is in pristine condition (1928). Looks like it could...
