I asked the seller for more pictures, it is marked with the flaming bomb and NRA on the bottom.
But I don't know if the bidders knew that and how much that would drive up the price. There is always the hope that it could be linked to a well known custom gunmaker.



Since the flaming bomb stamp is quite common on '03 rifle barrels, I still wonder if it would drive the price up? Seems like a pretty well used gun, and some less than perfect care during it's life. Maybe if the receiver sight, or scope were still there, but as it was the high price puzzles me also.
