I bought the rifle for what it is, not the story behind it, but the backstory is pretty cool. It purportedly was purchased by an Alaskan who used it on his regular forays to Kodiak Island in the 30's-40's. In more recent years it passed through the hands of Michael Petrov, noted collector/researcher of pre-war custom sporting rifles. It's serial number got a hit in the Springfield Research Service list of verifiable Sporters, National Match, and other specialty rifles.
