    DSCN2270.jpgDSCN2271.jpgDSCN2272.jpgDSCN2273.jpgDSCN2279.jpg

    I picked this up for 1000$ and I hope I didn't blow it ? It has a cartouche I think means Philippines Ordinance Department and the second one I am clueless.

    Also was the sight put on after it was in the hands of someone or was it original to the gun

    Thanks for all the help I really appreciate it.

    If it is POD or POD-D you are correct; PaOD is Panama. The barrel is original/correct. Have some pictures of the "overall" rifle?

    If there was a way to prove it came from the Philippines, we'd be having a long talk!! LOL!

    Almost 100% certain that the Lyman was put there by a former civilian owner. No SRS hit.

    Yup, I agree . . .

    The "bubba" that installed that sight, mounted it too far forward. The clip slot is unusable. --Jim

    Was it a one- or two-bolt stock?
