I purchased this recently. No traces of case hardening on the finish of the bolt nor extractor. Blued finish shows signs of wear, so if redone is an old reblue. The serial numbers are small, looks a little strange to me. Note the double stamped markings on the receiver. Porter pop-up aperture sight gets jammed in place some times. The little spring at the front of it has been twisted and the release nubbins has a dent in the front that keeps it from moving forward properly. There is a little grub screw at the rear of that sight base. I am assuming that is to secure the rear sight, when sighted in. The rifling is quite good with dark grooves near the chamber. Comments welcome.Attachment 51146Attachment 51147Attachment 51148Attachment 51149Attachment 51150Attachment 51151Attachment 51152
