It seems to be all there- but the front part runs off page unless you scroll over (at least on this monitor.)

I believe the rifle is most of a Maltby FTR. (Missing the fronr sight protector.)

The butt socket looks like it had the markings scrubbed off during the FTR, so the serial number may be a bit arbitary. Could have been assigned just to keep the records straight.

I also noticed there there is not a half cock position on the bolt.

Here's the image in a more bite sized format:

I think if I flip the bolt over and post a picture of it we'll see what everyone is talking about.

Now I see what they mean.



And this is where the front sight is now.
