Just when I thought I'd seen everything. Here's a offer that didn't meet reserve on GunBroker, DOH! I wonder who would trust this seller enough to bid $850?
I guess they sent it through Aniston Arsenal two or three times just to upgrade the cosmoline!

You'd have to boil that one for a week to get all the bacon grease off...
Besides his description being off, what is wrong with the rifle itself? It looks like a re-arsenaled post Korean War rifle. I personally don't want to pay that price, but from the standpoint of "what to look for" am I missing something? Please enlighten me. Thanks.
Nothing wrong with it as shown for a shooter. My opinion it's worth the opening bid of $850 but not the buy it now of $1,850. Late features as expected for the SN range. Mixed maker parts just from what's shown. IBM LW-B marked stock, SG recoil plate. And would need some TLC.

Sorry, Used to seeing a posted link. Didn't think about clicking on the High Lighted Gunbroker
'Unfired. museum, minty'
I guess he means since the rebuild(s). Note the multiple 'P's on the front of the pistol grip, meaning Proofed after overhaul. Yeah, it probably would bring $800 being a Winchester, but it sure ain't no cherry!
Wow with all that grease on it I thought at first Old George was selling it.
Unfired? Minty? If you look close it has been Augusta Arsenal stamped twice and the "Ps" on the grip are also multiple stamps. (Earlier I posted erroneously Aniston). Some of you may remember I have a OI stock that has been through rebuild three times, two ANs and one AAD.

How about unfired after it was last re-built then?
