I had the opportunity to match one back in the day. I had a mount and I found out the Cmp had the M1C to match it. So I called them and they put a hold on that serial if it ever came up to call me. They said they had to wait till it was graded before it could be sold.
Long story short i waited several years and I lost interest and sold the mount. Then about 2 years after I sold it I got the call.
I have always kicked myself I wasn't more patient. I think Dave McClain said there are only a little over a 12 matching sets he knows of. They are very rare.

I?d love to find my original mount.. #3306639
My rifle is an early M1C with original unnumbered receiver bracket with original undisturbed staking.
I suspect my original scope would have been a M81 based on the rifle serial number but it currently has a M82 on mount #3617464. The rings are staked so I believe the scope is most likely the original scope to that mount.

Sent a PM to the guy with the mount that matches my rifle. No reply yet.
