Stop Negassing me!!!!!
I can't pass up a deal when I see one. For the price I paid, I pretty much got all the accessories for free. I think these are only going to go up in value. I picked this up at the Gettysburg show and, according to the vendor, he sold it 20 years ago and the guy brought it back to trade in so he was selling it again, albeit for a little more this time. As far as I can tell, it was refurbished in 1983, put in storage and hasn't been shot since. As long as I own it, it'll just sit like it did with the last guy, lol. Since I don't collect French firearms, feel free to tell me if I'm wrong about anything.

Is this a February 1975 date on the bolt carrier?:
There are no other markings that I can find.
Like most reworks, the bolt does not match:
But there is evidence of a previous number and/or markings:
Also the barrel number does not match. But, since there is no prefix, I'm not sure this is actually a serial number that should/would match the receiver:
Markings on back of grenade launcher sight:
I assume this is a cast front sight base?:
I have no idea what this blue dot sticker means on the butt plate:
Bolt face:
Bolt shows minima wear to the finish:
Same with the bolt carrier:
Gas tube and chamber look as new and feed ramp shows no wear:
Bore and crown lo0k good:
Is the "59" on the bolt locking lug the year of manufacture?:
