Smoothed the barrel down to make it more presentable.

Recontoured the trigger guard to make it look more like a carbine trigger guard. It is close but not completely accurate.

I found the last four digits of the serial number on the butt of the stock under the butt plate.

So now I have two additional bits of info.

1. The stock and the barrel and breach came from the same rifle. Probably the breach block as well.
2. The serial number is definitely 485521

Photos forthcoming when I get off my A _ _.
