Long way from being an expert, but that is the first thing that jumped out at me......

There is so much to learn about these old guns, that I'll never be an expert. Have made a few mistakes along the way, and will probably make more.

I spend a lot of time, reading the great information posted on this forum, then spend a lot of time looking at guns on GI and GB, just looking and learning. Applying what I have learned here, and other places. It's amazing how after time, certain things just jump out at you, or at least make you leary of actually buying a gun.
