Hmmm... You say the 2F1 at the IWM has unsymmetrical nose.
Is not it minority version?

Is Aldis sight same as telescopic sight? or a rod with ring and star? or a simple sighting rod?

The 'Hirohisa san' is a formal term in Japanese. So I am thankfull to you and
I should say to you that I feel tickle:-)
Please relax to call me, 'Hirohisa' or 'Hiro'.
BTW I am in anxiety about my articles at writing in Engrish.

Thanks, Hiro.
