I was thinking some custom work but the engraving looks a little crude so thought perhaps a M94 import from someplace. Ideas? If something on the internet makes you angry the odds are you're being manipulated

The bright reddish receiver is a result of immersion in a hot blue tank . I have had that happen many times. Is the left side of the barrel marked US repeating Arms? Some of the screw heads like the loading gate srew are buggered. I would suggest you have a chamber cast done to find out what .30 African is. Good luck wiyh it! Mel

That is one abused receiver. the consolidation of the states into one vast republic, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of that ruin which has overwhelmed all those that have preceded.
