What's intriguing to me is the combination of the .284 forearm, barrel index line, and snap ring cuts inside the receiver say factory .284 but the metal finish, buttplate, barrel stamping, earlier serial number, rotor cross screw, things like that say aftermarket .284.

It doesn't matter to me one way or another, just interested in the later transitions. I considered sending you this rifle to rechamber or rebarrel to 450 Bushmaster, but I don't want to do it to a historically significant rifle so I'm torn what to do.
