Picked it up this morning. A D (TI3) 130158, which is in the book, and the barrels haven't been touched. But, a new stock and other TLC is in order. It is straight grip, but book says pistol grip. Tang appears to be correct, with engraving. Wonder if it was returned for a rework? Anything in the records about that? I did notice that 157 was a straight grip????

If we could see more of the 'drop points' behind the cheeks we might be able to see if Remington replaced the stock while it was there for service in November of 1938.

I think Remington merely drilled a big hole from the left cheek to the right cheek.

How bad is the rest of the stock? I'd consider a repair, even with the missing piece and missing pin if it is good beyond that. Nothing like keeping original wood intact to the gun, but just my opinion. The wonderful repairmen now can do miracles.

Default picture of points
request sent for letter, but in the mean time here is a shot of the points, complete with that great hole! Interestingly there is a very small F next to the frame size, any idea what that is about?
