1955 production receiver, "LMR" marked and "3 53" dated barrel, marked "NM" on the left side along with "T" and "P" under the operating rod, with bright chamber, "NM/062" front sight, "NM" rear sight assembly, "NM" marked "RA" (Remington Arms) operating rod, "-SA/A15" marked bolt, along with a post-war "SA" trigger housing with "-5 SA" hammer, "SA-11" safety, and unmarked milled trigger guard. Fitted with a set of walnut handguards, with the front handguard screwed to the lower band, and a walnut stock glass-bedded to the receiver and trigger guard with "DoD eagle" acceptance stamp on the left of the wrist, circled "P" firing proof on the grip, "519" scratched into the top of the wrist, and "4302" stamped under the grip. Includes a Brownell's Competition Plus reproduction M1907 pattern leather sling along with an "AR" marked M3A1 combination tool, plastic oiler, and M10 combination tool stowed in the butt trap.

Very fine as arsenal refurbished and subsequently upgraded to National Match pattern specifications, retaining most of the finish with some minor edge wear, light cycling wear, dried grease, some limited minor patches of brown patina, and minor handling marks. The stock is also very fine as sanded, re-oiled, and glass-bedded with some scattered minor compression/handling marks and attractive grain. Mechanically excellent.
