I was lucky enough to stumble across and purchase this DCRA Long Branch over the weekend. It has had a very glossy coating of varnish put on it and looks as though it was drilled and tapped prior to being upgraded to DCRA status. Had been through a FTR as well. The numbers on the side of the receiver are stamped twice in different fonts but appear to be "3231". It is stamped once in larger font on the side near the Long Branch stamping and then again under the PH5C sight. Buttstock has a disc, which I wouldn't think would be correct for the rifle.
It has a matching "40 and Maple Leaf" on the receiver ring, bolt and barrel. Has a very shiny bore and the PH5C sight is very nice as well. Has a 7.62 magazine and Parker Hale sling swivel and a Parker Hale front blade site.
Stock is glass bedded. Trigger pull is clean and crisp. Here is a link to additional pictures:

Any and all insight and comments are appreciated.
Thank you,
Brian
