We need more details. Who made the barrel, op rod, triger group, etc? Is the wood cartouched or not? ME? TE? How about some pics?

A june 1943 SA with correct stock, barrel, lock bars, uncut op rod, etc. is a great deal at what you paid. Anything else depends on what you show us.

Doug, if you're happy with it, you made a good deal. CMP rifles run equal to or slightly higher. These old war dogs are great weapons and shooters. I'm happy for you.
