Late to the party but very, very nice, Fred. Your pictures are always quite clear for not using a tripod.

Late to the party as well.
Rifle looks like a new one.
I have commented before about your picture quality and was surprised they were taken with your phone camera. I have a Nikon D3200 with a $700 lens and have problems turning out stuff this nice.
Thanks Allen! I don't know squat about photography, but it's fun for me to be able to share my rifle with others. Nobody ever gets to actually hold them because we live too far from anyone to make for an easy visit.
Fred, is your rifle cut for an oiler?
Yes it is Mike. It even has one in the stock along with three sections of rod.

It appears to me that this rifle was certainly used in service. It also appears to've been cared for quite well. The metal is without any pitting. The bore is sharp.
The original stock was replaced at some time during its service with a Field Replacement stock.
Some armorer matched up the Blonde stock with a matching Blond hand guard.
It's an excellent fit of metal to wood. Well matched up.
Really nice rifle!
Thanks!
very nice. and great pics. was that a converted 92 rifle?
