Not even in Giunta, who does list an amazing number of other anomalies. If you look at the pictures, you can see that the advance lever, the baseplate, release guard, etc are all wrong. Even more glaring is the use of an early M2 frameline illumination window. The screws on the accessory shoe show marks of a ham-fisted assembly so my money is on a privately cobbled together special.
