By golly you're right, I didn't see that.

In process of restoring a SC 'A3 w/ a Rem 2/44 barrel and new CMP stock.
Original barrel was shot out to .303 dia., and stock looked like it'd been over a fire roosting marsh mellows w/ it.
Must have been a VFW or other org that shot blanks and didn't clean it, the worst I've ever seen in a USGI Milsurps...
Will post pictures once it's had it's make over.

I had purchased a SM that the barrel was shot out and the stock appeared to have a branding iron applied all over it.
When I bought it he threw in a brand new '44 RA barrel and so I had a friend replace the barrel and ordered a replacement C stock from CMP.
Brought an old war horse back into service.
