I'm new here, but I'd like to post "photo" intensive post about my Saginaw S'G'. Its always fun to search the web to compare what other rifles have in common with your own, especially if they are close in serial #. So hopefully someone can find some enjoyment/reference material from this.
I picked this rifle up about 3 months ago. It is as received except the stock and swivel are USGI replacements. All parts are "correct" minus a Quality Hardware hammer.
I find it interesting how many flaming bombs are stamped on the rifle, and the amount of IP parts present.
On to the photos:



Stock has been sanded. High wood. S'G' in Box with ord. wheel




PM-IP marked buttplate


1,839,XXX serial


IP-W marked recoil plate
