I could have lived with the big shoulder on the monobloc and KYJ is right that reducing the extension (even leaving a 1/2" slab and recheckering the butt end) would have put it in the "fits" category lgthwise for a lot of us. Made it look like an Italian-built W&S-720 and I could live with that. Also looked like it had an intact sling as the disconnect was in place in the slot but I didn't ask.
