I'm afraid not even the rifle looks genuine. Pads located where they are presumably because fitter of same did not have means to mill flats and so set back onto the closest flat-ish spot. Looks like a re-used original front pad though. Rear pad was done "recently" as the cold blue and misaligned screws suggest. Replacement knob welded on the bolt handle or welded up to a be a full round?

I think it's a replacement bolt that's been scrubbed and re-numbered with that very unusual serial number to match the rifle TBH.

Could well be, it just seemed so oversized for a No4 knob, but perhaps that was just the camera/lens.
