    Looks good to me. Can't read the barrel date month....should be about a 2-43. Take it apart very carefully and clean it with gun oil or Blue wonder....don't use steel wool just an abrasive pad. Clean the stock with DA and give it a few coats of Raw linseed oilicon. Put it back together carefully and use the proper screwdrivers on all screws. If you use an improper screwdriver, you will bugger the screws badly. If you raise the rear sight you should see the R, the buttplate or cubby door will have an R on the inside and the band spring has one also. . The follower and spring are also R marked. Regards, Rick.
