    Thanks for the replies. Tiriaq, it is a 90L. It doesn't look like it's ever been used, but it isn't rebuilt or refinished either that I can see. Is it possible it didn't see service? That would be odd, wouldn't it? Or maybe it was just REALLy well taken care of...... The only blemish of any kind on the rifle that I can see is the scope number on the top of the buttstock; it's fainter than I would expect. It was late at night when I was looking at it, so it took me longer than it should have to figure that one out-it's had the felt covered retainer block from the transit chest resting right on it for a few decades......

    Peter, the buttplate is very nicely fitted, but the wood around it is a bit "proud", so perhaps the original one was just replaced as you postulate.

    Would anyone be interested in photos, or is everyone fed up with photos of #4 (T)s?

    Ed
