    Hi Capitalbee
    Glad the parts worked ok the gun looks to be in good nick
    For my future reference did the seal require any resizing
    Regards

    Serial No.

    Okay, further to the dating, my 127 has a serial no. 11965, which actually makes it manufactured in 1977/78. So it must be a MkI I guess?
