Manufactured during the Korean War in December of 1952. Blade front and adjustable peep rear sights, with "DRC/IHC" windage and "NI-C" elevation drums, Springfield "12 52 MD34" barrel, and a Springfield bolt, trigger housing, safety, hammer, and operating rod. Very light glass bedding has been applied to the upper and lower edges of the stock, with a serifed "P" on the pistol grip, "S.A./J.L.G." and "crossed cannon" stamps on the left side, a green canvas sling and a checkered buttplate.

Excellent, with 97% plus of the original parkerized finish, showing some light handling and cycling marks overall. A number of small dings are present on the underside of the bayonet lug. The excellent stock shows some light dings and dents, and there is some play in the handguard. Mechanically excellent.
