    If it's a Savage made cocking piece, my guess is that it was what was in the bin when it was assembled at the factory. All the early Mk.1 and many Mk.1* rifles had the Mk.1 cocking piece installed at the factory until supplies were exhausted.

    It would have had a Mk.2 300-600 flip sight as original from the factory. The pressed steel Mk.III would definitely be a later replacement.

    There's nothing wrong with two groove barrels. Some of the best shooting No.4's I've had over the years from both North American and Britishicon production were equipped with them.
