    Opinions please!

    What do you think, blued or parked? Ordered this Winchester bolt from Numrich and it was advertised as blued. I got it today and it looks parked to me. So, I called Numrich and they double checked the part number and confirmed it the part number for a blued bolt. They also called the warehouse to confirm no parked bolts were mixed in with blued bolts. Am I mistaken,could it be blued?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    That's what I thought, thanks Brian. This is the third time that Numrich has screwed me. Now I have to pay to return it.

    You should not have to pay for their mistake. However, that is why I steer clear of them!

    It's not so much a mistake, as false advertising. They are claiming this is a blued part!
