Thanks-- your analysis makes sense to me- as this gun is dated 1974, as per the inscription on the floor plate-- My friend who does not travel the internet, as I try to do, has decided to pass on this 1903-- he wants a pre-1964 M70-

Cabela's has had a few R. F. Sedgely custom Springfield's for sale in the past 3 years-- But I passed on them, and now they belong to other patrons of the GL. But this one has a great trigger, is accurate and was priced right. End of story.. RWTF
