Thanks for the update on the IMA M1A1 kits. Too bad they're not in as good of shape as the '28 kits but it still sounds like they're in better shape than some of the kits I've seen lately.

From the way things sound, Christmas will be coming for you. Everyone's parts seem to be like-new to new.

There were two interesting items with my kit. First, the safety is checkered, as was done with some of the early safeties. However, it also has the hole in it like the Colt safeties. It is of Savage manufacture, not Colt. I know this modification is often made to a smooth WWII safety at the request of a current owner (I understand PK does a wonderful job of this), but I would not have expected these parts kits to have an owner-modified part. Any opinions on the this??
The second item is a stamp on the left side of the receiver nose (I sure do wish these kits included the back part of the receiver). It is a circle with a line through the middle. In the top semi-circle is the number 38. In the bottom semi-circle is what looks like a monogram with the letters C J K, the middle letter J being larger like a typical monogram. Has anyone seen this kind of stamp before?
A grand is a lot of money to be sure, but considering what these parts cost individually, the cost doesn't seem unreasonable.
