Extensive takedown shows all matching numbers. Factory matching buttstock, numbered on the 2-screw iron, is made of European walnut, checkered at grip area, and ends in ribbed horn buttplate. Correct sling swivels on both forend and buttstock. CONDITION: Excellent, orig bright blue, estimated at 98%, with a scattering of surface freckling, most pronounced on the front and backstrap. Minimal sharp edge wear. The small strawed parts on the pistol are in comparable condition, showing no evidence of touchup. Same is true for the fire blued grip screws whose slots are unmarred. Stock lug retains at least 98% orig rust blue with the strawed lever having 75% fading finish. Wood retains nearly all orig varnish with the buttstock having a light scattering of surface dings. Buttplate with minimal surface marring and no edge chips. Retaining screws have 98% orig fire blue with unmarred slots. Bore is pristine. Perfect mechanics. One of the better M1902 Carbines whose light surface freckling can easily be overlooked in favor of its overall attractiveness. 4-51013 LMA122 (13,500-18,500) – Lot 3321a
