Looks like two have been sold at full price, and two have been sold at an offer price. I wonder what his bottom line is for offers. I wonder if once they are all sold he'll tell us where/by whom they were made.

Good news, I got mine yesterday, looks really nice. Bad news installed it and the firing pin gets hung up in the fired position, fully extended. If you bump the safety ever so slightly toward the safe position the firing pin will fully retract on it's own. With out digging out the calipers and getting all scientific, my guess by eye balling it is the machined in detent looks just a bit off. So when the safety is at rest in the full off position it is just a bit too far "off" so to speak. But it looks to be a nice job machining, which is a shame. I'm going to putz with it see if I can make it function.
So be careful and check yours if you bought one.

Well that was quick. Dragged out the evil Dremel tool with a diamond small point bit. Cut the edge of the safety where the pin had the small tab off the side of recesses into the safety seemed to be ever so slightly a lip there. And took a couple of touches to the detent on the opposite side that I wanted to move the safety. It functions very nicely now. The effort to make it click into position are a bit less than the original which for this one I tried it on is ok, they were pretty stout before. So five minutes in at the bench to get it to work is ok with me. Happy I bought it, I'll have to figure out how to post pictures here and show what they look like.
