National Ordnance A3

[ArtPahl]

The one I have is serial number 6000034. The few I've seen or heard of have numbers beginning with 5. Has anyone seen a "6"?

I just noticed that I've asked this before (but I didn't get a response then, either).

ArtPahl - Likely the lack of response is due to the privately made National Ordnance receivers being considered poor quality, dangerous, 1970's - 1980's 'knock-offs' of questionable metallurgy.

There is no historic and little collecting interest in the National Ordnance rifles. The receivers are regarded as 'time-bombs'.

The main value of a National Ordnance rifle lies in stripping it to salvage the stock, barrel, bolt and other original GI parts.
