I would say. I've seen a couple of those before, other rifles though. I did a '92 Winchester that way once. That was an overload of sorts.
I had a M1 Carbine, Winchester that fractured along that same line but it was metal fatigue...old age. A classic of an old receiver that had been refinished before sale so it looked good.
A dent puller, soldering tools, a few coats of park and some unsuspecting buyer probably won't know the difference. Saw one like this recently but it had not blown up yet. Lemme see if I still have pics of it. It was a 7 million inland.

It looks like the rear of the right bolt lug is partly ripped forward.
Think thats Epoxy patched on the left rail?
Pimped out, just needing curb feelers....

Think it was rewelded after previous torch cut. Could not see the whole way down, but that weld area when down behind the wood. It was highly polished. Bolt looked chromed or coated with something. Highly polished as well. Looked like a bag of skittles. Was told the colors were the result of bluing gone wrong. Hopefully it will hang on a wall instead of being used.
It would be purple if it wasn't a strong enough solution. Bluing that is...parkerizing is different...Quote:

Yes, that's a weak solution of bluing.
