    Chris,
    Thanks for the update. I thought maybe you had discovered an earlier date. Nice just the same. Thanks for posting

    Ha ha. Nothing slips by on the forum. It's still apart for cleaning. 120k range, half oct, button mag, pistol grp, I checkering, take down. It's an odd rifle with lots of special features. I believe the front sight has been changed as well as the rear sight. Need to see how it letters someday.

    I finally figured out mine, an afternoon with John Beard (as I remember) sending pics back and forth on the internet. It was said (tongue in cheek of course) that the M1923 was actually the first test for OCS during WW2. Figure it out on your own and your were in! :-) I got most of the several I own off NZ surcharged Remington 03's because we sent them down there because our guys hated them here.

    Yup, absolutely correct, an important thing to remember is the "clamp closure" is what provides the final tightening for parade position and the short strap being reinserted into the lower buckle after it's removed from the upper outer buckle is what gives the "long carry" and "shooting" adjustments.
