Wow, very nice for a 97 year old rifle. All I have picked up is this sad individual and an Indian Pattern BB repro.

you fine gentlemen put me to utter shame. Hopefully my pockets will be completely empty and my gun safe full after the April show (A.A.C.C.A) in Calgary, going this long without a purchase isnt healthy.

That's a great rifle, Grant. How would it have escaped the bolt mod?

I've been wondering that myself - though I suppose it must have happened with some.
Absolutely no sign of any rivet or pinning on this one, anyway ....
As a military collectable, I consider that a bonus. For shooting, I'll be very careful - or just use my sported M'10 with the pinned bolt - or even try the bolt from that one in this full-military rifle.
That raises a question - am I correct in my understanding/assumption that Ross bolts are more or less interchangeable without fear of headspace problems? Seems to me that the very close tolerances of the bolthead locking lugs and the corresponding receptacles in the receiver should serve to position any boltface in essentially the same place ...
Or am I "out to lunch" on this?
