Thanks ever so much for the info! I'm sure my son will enjoy this rifle as a new start to his collection. I won't be changing anything; (my thought) it is the histiry of this rifle an I'll leave those choices up to my son. Thanks again and you all have a great day..............

Good idea. Maybe I was a bit harsh with the "garden variety" comment, but the way I look at it, that rifle likely went to war, and just like soldiers it was decomissioned one day and began a "civilian" rifle which long ago an individual modified to suit his or her taste and became a critter getter. Quite appropriate when you think about the overall circumstances of the gift.
