David,

I didn't see your post until I came back to this thread. You may be right, and I must be wrong. Although in my post #116 I tried to clarify: "To restate, the serial # is on the forestrap but the grip frame backstrap is not rebated and the round butt stocks are flush with the backstrap." his description: "...the wood sticks out to the rear of the backstrap". Which I guess now, doesn't mean 'flush' but TACCI did not correct that in his very next post.

I also asked to see the grip frame. That would certainly clear this up.
