Picked this up when I went home on leave in July at the north store. I was looking for something with a little history.

SA 389xxx, SA 2-52 bbl, ME 2, TE 3. HRA op-rod, post war trigger assy, post war bolt. USGI walnut stock in pretty good shape, dings and dents but nothing major.

How it came home:

I'm waiting on some WWII parts (rear sight, milled trigger guard and some stock metal) and then she's off to Tim for a cmp special. I want it to look sort of like maybe it got rebuilt during the war, but I'm not looking to spend a ton of money on correct parts.

Old german gunsmith trick. It's kind of a family secret. I'll pm you so it's not internet searchable. I trust you guys on BT, but not on the cmp forum.
