Thanks Bill, I bought the rifle at an estate sale. The Nephew was conducting the sale. His Uncle had passed some time ago and the Aunt had recently passed, no children. The Uncle was never in the Military but had a garage back in the 40's & 50's in a very rural town up here. He would take things on trade and hold items until sevice was paid for. The Nephew thought that the rifle was brought in buy a vet after the war and was held for a set of tires. The rifle sat in a closet until the sale. I was the first one to pick it up and there was a line behind me waiting to see it. I bought it without a haggle $325.00. My lucky day.....Frank

P.S. I like the blond look!
