1950 vs 1951

Is a 1950 and 1951 frame tha same? in other words, can a 51 frame be substituted for a 50?

Yes, they are the same from 48 - 52 as long as you stay with F-1, F-2 etc. You can also cut down a larger frame to make a smaler Model F-2 to F-1.

I could ask if he was sacrificing a '51 to preserve a '50 for the obvious reasons but I won't.........
