I appreciate everyone's information. I half expected that this would have been a civilian rifle...I think the assumption was that since he was in the war then this must have been his "war rifle" and no one took the time to actually look into it.

Also, thanks for the preservation tips...I'd like to clean it up a bit (or at least slow down the deterioration).

Thanks again!
