Which of the Springfield 1922s is the best?

[Mike Haas]

I recently purchased a M1922MI NRA Sales rifle that was upgraded by DCM with M2 Bolt and magazine. The receiver is marked "M1922MII" and the serial number is "20144B", the barrel is dated "8-31". It was sold in 1936 by DCM. The sales letter describes it as "Rifle, U.S.Caliber .22, M1922 MII, NRA, Browned". Campbell indicates that the DCM sold 114 of the M1922MII NRA Sales rifles which makes them a little more common than the 77 M2 NRA Sales rifles but still fairly scarce. The M1922MII is probaly the best of both worlds: NRA stock, blue finish , M2 bolt and magazine. I shoot my M2 Sales Rifle occasionally - it is a very accurate rifle.

I have "M1922MII" - Serial # 19109B - Barrel SA 8-28
I never tried to "paper" it through SRS.
If someone has the SRS Books can they

I have a Springfield Research Service (SRS) letter. Most of the M1922MI amd M2 NRA Sales rifles will letter. There were very few National Match or M1922MI rifles sold in the 1930s. The rfiles were very expensive - $59.61 for a M922MII and $59.60 for an M2. The Depression was still in full force and the M1922MI and M2 rifles were target rifles with limited appeal.

Wouldn't the SRS letter indicate where the MI version was sold (US Army contract?) and the DCM letter indicate by whom the rifle was purchased after the MII mod?
