Thanks Jim,
I forgot about that. The conversion looks to be a decent job.

Not a bad job, even left some of the closing ramp on the recoil shield to seat the case heads in the chambers. It was just rough filed but that can be sanded out up and down with paper wrapped around a small flat sanding block, starting with 340 grit and progressing thru finer grits, and finished up with 2000 grit paper. And you won't need to take off enough to jeopardize proper head spacing.

Then it'll take cold bluing (OxPho Blue from Brownells) much better!

Don't look bad at all. I've owned worse.
