The included Springfield Research Service letter confirms the model and serial number and states that the rifle was as a "Special Target" model to the Dickinson County Rifle Club of Abilene, Kansas on May 19, 1927. Fitted with a National Match spec "star gauge" marked barrel dated 4-25" with blade front and adjustable ladder rear sights (without volley notch) with polished face, standard markings on the receiver ring, parkerized bolt, and standard smooth trigger. Straight grip stock with grasping grooves, dual reinforcing bolts, circled "P" on the underside of the wrist, boxed "D.A.L." inspection cartouche on the left side, and coarse checkered steel, trapdoor buttplate with oiler in the trap.

Excellent with 90% plus original parkerized finish remaining overall, some scattered light edge wear, and surface nicks, visible cycling wear on the bolt body and extractor, and light edge wear on the buttplate. The stock is also excellent with very sharp markings, some small scattered dings, and some small chips at the toe. Mechanically excellent.
