Couldn't let it sit on the rack when the price is right and bubbas are lurking.
39 Tula with SA and D marks. Finn matched bolt and great looking forend spliced on. Bore is really nice too. There was some damage that was apparently whittled off below the finger grooves long ago. It has the look of a quick field repair to me but hard to say.
On Facebook? Check out the non-sporter preservationist group at: OOOPS. Deleted by Facebook because it's evil to even discuss collectible firearms on social media these days.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Another one with cool features. Can't blame you for not passing on it! Nice that it has a Finn matched bolt. Most of these seem to be pure mix masters. Stock looks good too!
