    Looks like it’s never been fired. Ian Ashton remarks in his book that models marked ‘M1’ are in the minority, a good find!

    You have done well there. The M1 is a well proportioned, good looking lantern. To score one pretty much unfired is great. To get a second one in such good condition is amazing. I am not jealous honest!
