I've never heard of the debate of caliber. But I'm young yet. What else is suggested?
The hinged is one of the reasons the Argentine action is favored by custom gunsmiths, also their beautiful machining and overall finish. And the bottom metal doesn't need much extra work to be really elegant, as shown here on this rifle by the Late Al Bieson. Note the graceful contours he achieved with only a file, and the flawless fitting for which he was famous. Also another Argentine action newly trimmed, refined and rebarreled and ready for the wood...The 1909 Argentines have hinged floorplates.

Unfortunately the Crest is gone. I missed out on that one, dealer had one but it sold quick but it was a premium price.I like it, does it have a crest??? Damn nice stock is it as pretty up close as it looks??

Numbers matching including cleaning rod, stock and bluing are very clean looking.
Yeah the bayonet is in good shape with
matching serial number on scabbard. Fitment is perfect, nice and snug with no slop but not too tight either.
Many thanks those sword bayonets of the time are just beautiful.. Unless you were attacking a line of men with them on at the time..Well then let's take a closer look.
I do collect a few knives, nothing too expensive but this bayonet is probably my favorite.
It's like a mini sword
