Well, LBK was right, it does not specify that the sling eyes and tang sight were factory original. Ratz. But I do think it confirms that the scope was about as original as it can get. It was accepted at the Utica warehouse on August 20, 1912 and shipped out to the original owner the same day, August 20, 1912. The original owner, The Malcolm Rifle Telescope Co. Joe
