One for John H.
I've sent my bride a picture of your lighting set up, as a hint. Let's see what santa brings. In the mean time, photos are sub standard, I apologize. Ser# 24212 shipped to SIG CORPS DEF 06/03/1915.

John H: Everything is unquestionably correct for a 1913 vintage, including the Springfield research paperwork, about 85% original bluing... but, the keyhole mag is entirely blued, not two tone, as with the others I've had in the past. I'm not finding anything, even in Harrison's book, that would lead me to believe this can be correct?

John D.... I've looked all over my key board and I don't have a button marked spell check.
