Like I said im positive he didnt get it new, and he didnt have money, just knew he went hunting at least once a week more likely more lol Anyhow I cant wait to get it restored but im young and dont have that kind of money, one day i would love to, but i dont want someone to mess it up so when the time comes id rather pay up.

Anyone have any idea how the engraving on the receiver would get so worn? Would normal hunting cause so much wear? I can understand the rib matting and lettering being buffed down when reblueing but the wear on the receiver is extreme.

Stephen a research letter will give you information from factory records which are available for your gun. Go to the PGCA Home page and click on the Research Letter link and follow the directions. More than likely, it will tell you who bought the gun new and any subsequent returns for repair.
