Wow! If they built it in a hurry they sure didn't hold back on the proof marks!

Apparently the idea of optimum touch hole location has evolved over the years.

Me too.
Could we get an explanation so nobody else makes such an error?

Thanks for posting the link.  Its nice to see one of these in such good condition.

I think the moderators do an excellent job keeping things on track here.  In this case, while related to ALRs and of interest to the board, the video didn't have a) much info on building and b) its and British pistol.  Its a judgement call.
