    Handguard seems off shade, not a big deal unless it is incorrect. The barrel date may be 1928 but it looks like a straight bolt handle which means low serial number, unless the bolt was swapped. The pictures are awful, can't tell if it's a Springfield or Rock Island from either the barrel or receiver shots. The cartouch in these pictures looks like it was done freehand. Do you know the maker and the serial number? Personally I would pass because I don't like what I see. But I don't buy sight unseen anyway. Too many possible variables with 100 year guns.
