A fellow member of this board was kind enough to hook me up with a potential lead.
This is the lead. https://www.facebook.com/SmithEnterp...07671939324843 So I called the owner of the rifle. At first he was really nice but then, when I started asking him questions, he got really offended. He said that to ask if the gun was a cut and welded gun was, "the f**king stupidest question ever times 1,000,000". My response was that I just can't assume that his gun was meticulous, after all, he said that the gun is not a NIB. He stated that his gun has a serial number of 1, and that Ronald Raegan, himself, authorized the creation of these guns to be exported to Columbia. He said that this gun is a piece of history. His asking price? A firm $65,000. Lol.

It's built on one of his receivers, so I kinda get the response to the re-weld question.
It's definitely a piece of history, but $65K is way beyond my budget .
