    Oh yes, it concerns me that this rifle is not in my display

    Very nice piece! Is it still the original barrel/to which serial block does this 03A4 belong?

    €dit: just a note, the stock is a Keystone replacement, see the K in the cutoff. Not sure if these were also marked with the FJA and the ordnance escutcheon, someone more knowledgeable will have to tell. And someone once tried to look into the scope. To find out if this rifle is still in the as-produced condition, it would need a very detailed comparison (scant stock with 44 barrel with which serial block with a late M73B1 marked scope).

    Do you have pictures of the bolt cutout on the stock? Are there any rebuild markings on the stock?
