Can get some information on its service record and some opinions/advice on the hand guard as well as the front sight blade. If replacements are available, I would like originals rather than reproductions. I will leave it as is if I can't find original parts. The hand guard may be a legitimate repair for all I know and be perfectly OK.

The barrel is exactly 22in and the rear sight has the little C stamped into it.

From what I've been able to garner from a CGNer, the rifle may have been issued to the 6th Cavalry, I'm not sure where to look up the information on this.

As it is a later model, there are many things about it that may not be consistant with earlier models. The stock looks to have been refinished but that could just be honest wear that has been cleaned up.

Thanks in advance Gerald Deis aka bearhunter
