    All of the above issues aside, I find it irritating that the description is SO poor for such a potentially rare and pricey rifle. The photos do not show the buttsocket marks--we had to find out it was a 1915 rifle from another site. One would think that RIA could at least state the year and the manufacturer; that is pretty basic information. I would thumbs down it for that reason alone. Sometimes a lack of information is "convenient"
