Gun Shows are bad for my bank account...........

Hit the Dallas Market Hall show this weekend looking for a Polish PM-63 kit from MGS, and ended up bringing this home........
There was a "new" vendor, with lots of kits/parts.....and he has a few '42's for sale. Gave 450.00 for this one....would have been more pleased with the rail / rivet removal.....looks like it was done by a viking with a grinder! The ratchet plate is trashed. The plus side: completely matching except for the bolt/barrel.....All German, but cut thru the markings.....SW? manufacturer. Does anyone still have longer nose sections, and perhaps a rear with intact markings?
I'm planning on going the semi route.
Thanks for a great board too!!!!
