    First Post and Trapdoor, so SRS time!

    Morning all!

    Finally purchased my first Trapdoor Springfield (ser 471526), and time for the obligatory SRS request. And photos! Very happy with the purchase, great heat treating and condition (came across one gentleman mentioning that the mid 4xxxxx ranges had better condition because they were held back in favor of the "new" model rifles coming out). And sling, bayo, sheath, and repro frog.

    There is no listing for your serial number in any of the SRS books.
