That's a fine looking rifle! The stock refinishing looks well done.
Sorry I reacted quickly and sharply, my wife says I need to work on that. I just hate being the newbie and getting trounced on.
Anyway, by the time I am done, my embellished story should include...
I'll tread reasonably lightly here - what makes you think this has a low serial number? I don't see anywhere in this thread where the serial number is typed out, and at this time, for me anyway, the...
I'm ok with a parts queen - kind of like the 429 SCJ Torino out back (figuratively, though I did have one at one time) with the shaker intake with no matching numbers, but all NOS replacement parts -...

I did the search, came up with nothing - what is an SRS check? I gather something to do with service record of the rifle?
Mine is a SA of 1929 sn. 1313961.
Thank you in advance for any...
Looking at mine - serial for 1929 and barrel stamp matching - The peep is marked 6 on the left and R on the right. First thought would be the R is for Remington, but that's just me. Is it that, or...
I just stumbled across this site, I hope to be able to contribute as much as I glean. I love to shoot, anything, but prefer a good rifle over pistol. And I do love a milsurp firearm!
So howdy,...
