I know I saw an identicle one in a gun digest in 1974 for $2,300. Anyone know anything about AYA?
Are there any markings at all on it such as X1 , Y1, Z1 , A2 ,B2 or C2? I was researching it a bit and came up with those date codes which would help you date it anyway. 1978 is X1 1979 is Y1 and so on. Heres a link with a load of AYA information for figuring out the stamps or markings that may be on it.
