after building my 99% Saginaw 1919, I got a 1953 ria m2 tripod to mount it on. After a while was going to an estate sale and saw a 1943 dated tripod sitting in a closet. Asked the lady how much, she said just take it. I still gave her $100. Looked great ect,. Got home and unfolded it, and noticed wouldn't sit on all 3 legs. After close examining noticed the head was warped as if something heavy fell onto it while was opened up. Lil disappointed, but sold my complete post war tripod to fund something else while I searched for a new head. Found a 1955 head that worked for time being till finally got this new head. Not midwar dated like original but still 1945.
