Greetings Hal

A friend gave me a heads up on this old thread.

Is your rifle s/n the same as the one taped into the inside of the can? The part that makes me a little uneasy is the rifle s/n inside the can is stamped into the mount and then canceled. If the rifle was rescoped and the butt and mount marked as so, then the can should of been too as it is not a tough job to remove a taped in s/n and replace it.

Second, I am not easy with the font of the new scope s/n on the butt. It is the same as the first one in the string but the numbers are a bit too large and modern in my opinion. Now this is a 1970-80's rifle so it could be correct, but it makes me question it.

Remember, if you like it then you are good to go. If you plan on shooting it and it shoots straight then you have no problems!
