Then I have two letters for the next rifle. When this 1919 250-3000 used to live with Randy, he sent in for two letters. The numbers on the butt stock were off from the receiver, so he lettered the receiver, and lettered the butt stock. The receiver number said it was:
Received to the warehouse November 10, 1919
It was also forwarded to the original consignee, listed as the Emory Hardware Co of Bradford PA November 10, 1919.

The letter for the butt stock said:
I am sorry to respond to you with a disappointing letter. Regrettably, and unusual, the entry for this model is blank.
The consensus here, at the time, was the butt stock was original to the receiver. For what ever reason, that but stock was put on the action of the afore mentioned receiver. Forearm matched receiver. I forget if I ever checked the butt plate, maybe Randy remembers?

I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.
