First thank you for all the interest and the pics. I like that long tube magazine.

The old girl finally arrived and I'm pleased so far but it needs to be taken apart & cleaned.

Wood is nice with some figure and no pits on the metal that I can see right now.
I'm no expert but it looks to me that it's a carbine with the military rear sight missing.

Now my dilemma is ether to "sporterize" / find a sight and leave it alone.

Can take a pic. / 2 if someone will post them for me - would need your Email addy.

Serial # is 885x if anyone is interested. --- John
