My rescue/restoration job finished

[LeagleEagle]

Picked up this "sporterized" 935960 SA with a J5 bolt and well worn SA-05 barrel on Gunbroker for cheap. I bought a NOS High Standard 9-44 barrel from Constantine (hence the unmilled rear sight base). Chuckindenver did the repark, installed the barrel and finished the CMP stock and handguard.
Should make a great shooter!

Ressurection complete! Does she shoot as good as she looks!?

[LeagleEagle]

Don't know yet, just got it back from Chuck today. I have some Greek HXP I'll take to the range with it.

[Midmichigun]

I like! Looking forward to your range report!!!

[Calfed]

Great looking rescue. Hope it shoots as good as it looks

[Demaggg]

Nice job!

I wish we could could pick up new barrels like that over here.
They're like rocking horse poo here.

Was the rear sight base on the original barrel "open" on the bottom?

[LeagleEagle]

I don't think so, it was a typical 1918 vintage rear sight base.
