The SP FP7 6304 isn't.
It's actually a former Canadian National FP-9. It has worn several pain schemes for various events. It also was in the Western Pacific's orange and silver.
Thanks again for the additional info Blue. Very much appreciated.
BTW: I look at your website all the time, great stuff. But I still can't leave any comments.
