OK, I bought it. The action opens, uncocked, as smooth as silk, so no problems there. The bolt face and extractor appear new, and it closes on a dummy round fed by hand without pressing the extractor in. He tossed in a wood stock which I haven't seen, but says it will have to be totally inletted for the magazine and floorplate.

Oh, well, he said he was tired of it, so we'll see what happens.

Thanks, guys. (what they say about lawyers isn't always true) smile
