I wanted to illustrate your comments about the scrubbed receivers in post #9. I sourced one of the bodies in Canadaicon many years ago and then found another in Illinois later. I scrounged parts from a couple of LB No.4's I imported that were converted many years ago by parties unknown. I even visited Marstar in 2001, (what a feat!), and bought rear sight assemblies and Inglis pistol parts to complete projects I had on the bench at the time. I also imported a few complete C No.7's that were put together in Ontario by unknown builders. I always had to tune them up and especially install the rears sights properly as they were never right it seemed at the time. They were all good to go afterwards and targeted before sale. I never tried to market them as other than post service builds. I sold them for $800 or so over ten years ago. I also have a minty original dated '45 like the one posted by CODFan. I love those .22s!

I just looked at my '45 date rifle and it hasn't got a LB stamp on the left of the butt socket. It's sn. 0L5980.
