I wish I had more info on this rifle. I would really like to learn more about the M1, like I said, I've always been a bolt gun guy. I know that the seriel on the action does not match the one on the stock. I'm going to try to spend some time with this rifle this summer, so I may need to hit up one of you guys to learn me up a little. Between the kid at home and the work schedule it's tough to get out, and range time this summer has to be spent building loads and getting the rifles ready for my Alaska hunt this fall. But I can always make time to learn a new rifle. Any tricks or tips I'm all ears.
