Very nice,TC.Looks rear good.I hope the white stuff in the first pic is because it is an old picture,it is too early for that! The gun looks good with that finish.I also like how you photograph with the red sheet,it makes the gun show up clearer.One question-that is on the newer lafette[tripod]-I know how the trigger works on the older German lafettes,how does it work/where is it located on these? Thanks. ---bil
