One last thing, check the bore rifling. If there isn't much wear to it and the stock matches the barrel, that would tell me this rifle hasn't seen combat and It would lead me to believe in the originality of the stock finish..

I only have to go off his description of bore condition of "excellent".

Whatever is on there doesn't look very thick in pic 2 and 3, and I don't see any evidence of sanding, certainly not of excessive sanding?

Hard call!

I could pull mine out and compare. To me it looks fine. Was just pointing this out.

Michael, if it's not too much of a problem that would be great.

More photos. He also said he could not find a serial # on the stock, these are usually marked correct? Under the barrel area of the stock?

I think the wood looks ok, a little glossy. If the price reflects the condition...

Thanks Michael, much appreciated. Does look pretty similar. A couple of questions, where is the serial # your stock? Underside of grip? Also is ur sight hood modified? Thanks as always!

The serial number is under the stock behind the grip. I know the sight hood is different. I do not know if it is legit or not. Never worried about it much. But it fits well.

I just got home. And pulled it out. My stock does not have that lacquer where I pointed out in the sling area. That said, it could just be more heavily used. I still think this looks good but you will only be able to tell in hand.
