Dave where would the unit markings be? Serial number is 8046 with nothing else after the 6.

Maestro yes gave to my wife, but is a "family heirloom" to be enjoyed by all and passed down to generations after me. Does mine have receiver cut for artillery rear sight? Where is that? It looks like mine has 4 inspection(?) marks on the right receiver.

Has no pitting and at least 90% all original bluing and appears to be all no restorations, and paid $975 for it. So sounds like I did well there.

Have wanted one of these since I was "knee high to a grasshopper" and have lots of rifles, shotguns, and pistols but have to at least look at this one every day!
