Correct !
Yes, Fred Stephens artical on it appeared in " The Armourer ". Rob McDivitt provided a 42 page research file which is very informative as well. Believe you me when I tell you I almost passed out when this deal came together. My friend is an average guy of average means and to be the keeper of something the likes of this is unbelievable.
