Welcome to the forum. Shouldn't the serial be marked across the flats at the rear of the butt? I've never seen one that would be inside the socket. The specialists will be along shortly...

Ya I have no idea I am not well versed in this and this just feels weird and too good to be true

Welcome to milsurps, the rifles serial was often put on the inside part that goes into the socket and the scope serial say like on this rifle 23505 across the butt stocks wrist flats, it has the s but I cannot see anything else like the T on the left receiver is there an inspection marks on the small flats of the rear receiver S 51 under the butt where the wrist finishes. There are heaps of threads on the markings of a real T. Can you get close pics of the left receiver, Left socket, the receiver flats and so on, Rt side etc all close ups this will aid immensely. And of course bore condition is everything with these rifles along with how good the scope is (not cloudy etc)
Anyway good luck the experts will chime in soon and what were they asking price wise I have seen low ball $4999/US up to $8000/AU
Can we at least track the scope to rifle match guys!

If it's a serviceable #4 it would bring more than that. If it was a serviceable scope it would bring more than that. You could expect to pay that for a correct scope mount... Me? I'd take it just because, unless he's flogging a stolen rifle...can't for the world imagine why he wants that little either. I'd still be tempted to just take it. Unless it's stolen...

Maybe...if it's online only it could still be a scam. Can you speak to him by phone? Research his name and his trader name? Look at him on facebook? These things would at least show he exists...others will be along soon to help. Some have had scads of experience in this exact thing...
