Remington 513T

[grey ghost]

Hi, went to gun show over the weekend and bought a 513T. It has a FJA cartouche, a LEAD stamp and a RIA over a EB rebuild stamp. Built in April 1943. What does the LEAD stamping mean. The gun is parkerized and not tapped for a scope mount. Also there was a Stevens 87A, the gun had an ordinance flaming bomb on the barrel behind the rear sight also a ordinance flaming bomb on the receiver. On the stock it has a RA-P rebuild stamp, also on the stock it has a small crossed cannon cartouche. I will try to get my sister to take pictures and post them. What do you guys think about the 87A. Thanks Steve
