Left side of gun receiver is marked with "66" within a triangle, immediately followed by the model designation "56S" and then serial number. Action cover matches SN and is numbered "1126" on left side. Stock forend is factory cut to accommodate an underfolding bayonet, but none was ever fitted. One can see the telltale signs of this originally being a semi-auto gun made for export to the United States. The safety markings are in English characters "S" and "F" factory applied, and the middle position marked "A" has been added subsequently judging from the difference in the engraving, and the difference in the machining of the selector positions in the receiver. Firing mechanism moves smoothly when operated by hand. This weapon appears fully functional. This is a National Firearms Act item and requires BATF approval for transfer. CONDITION: Overall finish and appearance near excellent deep lustrous original finish with very slight wear at points where metal contacts metal such as the pivot point for the folding stock, and where the action cover meets the receiver. Wood is also exceedingly fine with a high glossy finish. Magazines and accessories are also in exceedingly fine condition with only the slightest of handling marks. Bore is near excellent, shiny and bright. This is one of the best condition specimens to come to market in years. 49621-1 JWK42 (15,000-25,000)
