Gentlemen,
Thank you very much for the background information. I did not mention in the original post, but the wood to metal fit on this rifle is as good as it gets on any custom I own. Beautifully executed and it virtually forms a vacuum when you try to pull it out.

One follow-up. Given the low three digit serial number, do you think that MS had a serial number range for the Greek contract guns and another serial number sequence for the rifles that they sold outside of the contract? I ask because I am reasonably sure the serial number was applied at the factory.

Thanks.
John
