good eyes, painter! it looks like the sight ears have been cut/ground down to the side-holes. the actual condition is kind of hard to make out, though.

interesting story, if it IS true.

No date on an Inland barrel?

As been said many times before, a person is buying the gun, not the story. Now if they still had the dated mailing box it would be pretty cool.

Maybe it was run over by a tank before the guy picked it up. Something, for sure, looks funny about the sight.
