The butt-plate hurts my eyes.

There is a 1938 S/243 Mitchell's special for sale in AUS right now on a used gun site, the guy wants $2,500 for it. Nearly feel sorry for him.

truth is its probably a vet bringback where the vet had the rifle spiffed up in germany ad a blade maker. This was all the rage back then..

I have seen this done to pisols more (Lugers and P38) but I think you are correct on this one.

I think this one was a bring back by Mitchell's grandfather... A family tradition

Bubba was in his garage saying to all his friends how he's going to clean this one up like the day it was made.
