$400.00 Deal or no deal on Lithgow?

[Sapper740]

Mine was the winning bid on this Lithgow No.1 MkIII. Many of you will fondly remember my previous post about this rifle and Chinese? markings. I can hear several of you s******ing from here. Oh well, I have a good self-deprecating sense of humor and was happy to provide some amusement. I think I did well on this rifle as the bolt, receiver, barrel and end cap match and the bore is in excellent condition. I assume Bubba has been at the furniture as it appears the wood has been sanded and stained. A small piece of the stock has been broken off under the Lithgow inspection stamps, possibly due to removing the buttstock first? Anyway, have a look at the pictures and please feel free to comment. I'd like to hear from the Lithgow cognescenti, especially as regards the color of the stock.
