Receiver manufactured in 1943. "RA/flaming bomb/1-44" marked barrel, "R" marked bolt assembly with correctly turned down handle, and Redfield base topped off with a Weaver Model 330 scope electro-stenciled "TELESCOPE M73B1/SERIAL NO 8532" on the right side. Fitted with a "RA" marked and "FJA" (Col. Frank J. Atwood) inspected 'scant' profile walnut stock set stamped "A129" and "5" on the bottom.

Very fine as arsenal refurbished, with minor edge wear, some minor spotting/brown patina showing, limited pitting, dried grease, and minor handling marks. The stock is fine as sanded and re-oiled with a few scattered light handling marks, a large open knot on the left, and an area of wood filler to the left of the trigger. Mechanically excellent. The scope is very fine with clear optics.
