The Lone Star commemorative rifles and carbines were released in 1970 and shared the same serial number range of LS1-LS38385. This rifle shows all the standard markings and features of this Texas themed commemorative and bears the desirable, previously unreleased serial number "LS0A". The "A" appears to be added to the serial number on this rifle because the factory collection Lone Star carbine, which is the following lot in this auction, was given serial number "LS0". The included FN America Certificate of Provenance identifies the rifle by model and serial number, stating that it was previously a part of the Winchester Factory Collection where it was maintained by U.S. Repeating Arms.
