1953 production receiver, "LMR" marked and "7 53" dated barrel with bright chamber. Includes a Civilian Marksmanship Program certificate of authenticity (dated October 29, 2021) identifying the rifle as "Service Grade", matching blue hang tag (dated October 20, 2021) listing the muzzle reading as "1+" and throat as "4+", fitted CMP hard case, 21 modern production en-bloc clips, and web sling.

Fine as arsenal refurbished, with minor edge wear, minor spotting, brown patina, and otherwise mild handling marks. Stock is also very fine as sanded with minor storage scuffs. Mechanically excellent.
