Matched Receiver & Bolt Body - Standard Action - 1948 - Transition Model

This is a matching receiver and bolt body pair from a 1948 standard rifle. Both pieces are marked with the serial number 100540. This is a "transition era" receiver with the cloverleaf tang found on the pre-war model combined with the smooth, and drilled, rear bridge of the later models.   Receiver - The original finish has notable wear and thinning. There is some surface rust/discoloration on the front ring and recoil lug. Bolt - The bolt has significant bluing wear on the handle and some shallow pits. It appears the bolt handle, near the base, on the back side, was ground/filed - see pictures. We use the NRA Modern Gun Condition Standards Grading System for grading part conditions.

If you do not hold an FFL or C&R license, you will need to enlist the services of an FFL to complete the transfer. If needed, we are happy to assist you in locating an FFL holder nea
