ok I took a chance and put it on layaway. It looked like one of the imports that came back in the 90s. it has a vary small import mark on the barrel you would need a magnafying glass to read it. the bore looked great, the stock was trash. original finish my dealer said that it was the earliest letter gaps he has ever seen I think the serial was something like 4553 can't remember the rest of it. a 53 LMS barrel. breda op rod, WRA trigger guard the rest of the parts were mix of post war parts. other the finding a USGI op rod and refinishing or getting new wood I will leave it the way it is.
