Not sure how I snagged this before anybody else, but when you see a functional looking CFO on eBay with an $85 BIN you have to pull the trigger. After a good cleaning and lubing I'm happy to say it looks better than the ebay pics showed it and everything functions perfectly. All I need now is a IV and a 123 to complete my Hardy-made CFO collection.
The main defect is a moderately sized ding (1 o'clock in the pic) in the rim. Should I try to bend it/pound it out and risk a crack or just live with it? The ding is not affecting the operation since it's on the palming rim.
