No I honestly don't...other than it was original...meaning full stock and non-sporterized. I'm surprised that I don't remember more as I've always been into history. I really think at the time - being a young teen hunter - I just wasn't into the old military bolt actions. They weren't nearly as collectible as now. You could pick them up cheap (I'm talking 70's-80's). But a lot of kids in my rural area hunted with old milsurps. That's what they were to us...old rifles that we used to hunt with until we could get a "real" deer gun like a 30-30 levergun or a Remington 700 or something of the sort.
