She is probably thrilled. Now she can put it on an auction and make a lot of money for something she didn't want. That's a treasure for collectors who have that kind of money.

Dayum.

Clicked the link just to see the picture.  :D

Reminds me that I laid up a piece of mac nut wood to carve me some Stg44 look-alike handle grips for my CETME. Have to dig that out and see if its cured, yet.

Yummy.
