WRA Colour ?

[Mikey51]

What do you all think of this ?. One of mine. I think it is an original Carbine but can't be sure as I read that it was a "transitional" period. Cheers All, Mike.Attachment 19506Attachment 19507Attachment 19508

Mike,
That COLOR looks genuine to me and it matches a 7 mil Win I have. What is the break down for parts?


(Oh, I forgot... people from New Zealand do not know the correct side of the road to drive on OR how to spell COLOUR!!!!)

That carbine looks great!

It looks right to me as well.

Mikey,
Of the three pictures, it could be original but I would question the bolt. As we all know the top of the bolts wears first and fast. Based of the receiver wear, I would expect to see no finish on the top of the bolt. The slide and bolt rails have no finish left.
