    Pics

    Pics required. You did not mention ALL furniture (excluding receiver and barrel) being blued which would be required for unmolested condition.

    My guess is he has seen Greek stocks with a SN in them and is referring to an RIA FK rebuild cartouche in the stock thinking a SN should be there and not the rifle SN on the receiver.

    It's a non-standard arrangement and outside the "normal" parameters for what is usually seen. That certainly doesn't make it wrong, but it doesn't make it right either. I can put blued parts back on...

    I would recommend you keep this as a sporter; it CANNOT be restored to military configuration because the finish is wrong and it is tapped. You will have something that "approximates" an issue rifle...

    Maybe a local armorer or field depot variation of a maintenance or check-test barrel gauging? Size looks like punch normally found in ordnance bomb or on receiver (right chamber flat)?

    And to be correct, the safety shroud would also need to be replaced. It is SC. Bolt is parked as well. This is a sporterized, reworked rifle with mixed parts.

    There is no such thing as "lightly sporterized". It is either original or buggered. The rifle you describe in your original post is worth about $75-$100. I would not take any more helpful advice from...
