Hey all, I've been lame and not bought much of late, but found this '38 BSW in the local wilds along with a sporterized '17 Sauer (Paul, I'll send you SN data on that one if you are reading this). I thought I used my BSW luck on getting my bolt mm '37 on the cheap, but had a little left.
Most of the parts are matching e/4 (b/r, tg and mag assembly, all screws, stock, bands and fittings) The mismatched ones are the rear sight leaf and slider (e359) and the bolt is a matching e/214 BLM.
The only detractions aside from some light carving on the buttstock are the missing band spring and the bubba-improvized solution to said missing band spring. The bayo lug pin was removed and a longer pin stuck in as a retainer and ground.
I'm going to drill this out *carefully* and further disassemble to provide pics of barrel codes and receiver markings. Just wanted to share the first few shots.
Salty, but I love it.
