The star gauged barrel is dated 2-38 with SA bomb, the last year these were offered with 4496 manufactured. Finish is blue. The NRA walnut sporting half stock features a pistol grip, no finger groove or hand guard and a special press checkered butt plate. The serial number coincides with the 1938 barrel date. This rifle features the globe front sight, the scarce long slide Lyman 48 rear mounted peep sight, single barrel band, and swivels. CONDITION: Very good. There is a 5/8 cut groove at breech like a timing mark that has blue in it which indicates it was reblued but purpose of cut is unknown. The Trigger guard and floor plate are patina. Frame retains virtually all of the original finish. The wood is excellent with minor impressions. The rifling is sharp.
