Serial number is 4354-58, no bayonet, and no shield on the left side. But its in great shape, and my first 30-06. Love the old military stuff and bolt actions in general. Wish there was a 22lr trainer for this one!!!! Larry

Don't know how long he had it. Said he only fired a couple of times, and that he bought it for shooting in his clubs vintage military rifle matches. But it didn't perform as well as his 1903's so he was selling it. Very clean rifle. I'll try to get some pics and post them soon. Larry

The other 10% are run the gamut from parts guns to everything in between..... These are my two and the bayonet...... Thanks, Ol'Duke Last Edited By: OlDuke 09/18/07 02:28 PM. Edited 3 times.

Unfortunately the stock was shortened and the handguard and hardware are missing. I am looking to replace these items which I know is no easy task. The shield is present on the left side of the stock, and the remainder of the rifle is in excellent condition. Plan to check out how accurate it is this weekend at the local range. Anyone knowing of the availability of a stock, handguard or hardware please let me know. Thanks, Paul

Good luck with finding a replacement stock. I've seen, maybe two parts guns show up on the auctions...just keep looking. Thanks, Ol'Duke

The last several have floated around floated around the different auction boards. When you get a chance, stick up a picture of it and if you don't care and it's not intruding, how much was your rifle....? Thanks, Ol'Duke

It is 99% - No cartouche on receiver or left side of stock. Stock has some minor handling marks. After I bought it I took it to my gunsmith, he said it appeared unfired. I paid $450. Found a bayo for it a few months later at a gun show. If I remember right I got him down to $75. It shoots very well. A bit of a thumper, but I expected that. Anyway hope it helps you.
