    Go to this site below and click on it. It's the only place you can find this information.

    The bolt has the WL and the 3 it also has a slight curve or bend to it is it supposed to be that way?

    Also, you will not need to pay me a dime for anything I find in the box and forward to you on that rifle. Thanks for offering though.

    That help would be fantastic! I cant thank you enough

    Thanks Rick, I guess since I don't know if that makes a difference it doesn't?

    I guess I should ask....... would you put that sight on that gun?

    I was asking about the sight if is it correct for that gun. The finish looks very black not like the rest of the gun is that what you mean by WW2 finish??

    You are mistaken.
    If you look at the photos of my 1920 NM rifle that I had referenced in an earlier post as having a similar type of stock and hand guard, you will notice that the stock on my rifle has Grasping Grooves.
    You can put anything on it that you'd like of course.
