serial #4640784, 30-06, 24'' 6-53 dated LMR barrel with a bright excellent bore showing only a small spot of pinprick pitting on one land nearer the muzzle. The metal surfaces of this ''Gap Letter'' rifle retain about 95% original gray-green Parkerized finish with light wear on high edges and contact points, the bottom metal and stock ferrule toning to a pewter-brown patina, and some scattered light handling marks and specks of oxidation. The walnut stock and handguards are in very good condition with some light dings and divots along the handguards and forend, a few smoothed, light abrasions looping from one forend woodline to the other, and scattered light handling marks. The left side of the stock is marked with a light and partial 1/2'' DoD acceptance stamp and an exceptionally crisp circled ''P'' inside the pistolgrip. The receiver and barrel markings are intact and crisp, the receiver leg showing the expected ''IHC F 6528291'' drawing number of a Springfield Armory-made receiver, and the small parts all appear to be IHC-marked, including the windage and elevation drums; interestingly, the gas cylinder lock is a PB-marked, Beretta-made variant. The rifle retains the standard open sights, the front sight with correct ''flared'' wings, a stamped triggerguard, and two slot gas cylinder screw. Included is a CMP Certificate of Authenticity serialized to the rifle, and a contemporary manual. A fine example of these collectable rifles. (14B11700-79) {C&R} (1800/2200)
