Home Forums Miscellaneous Topics Image Gallery 99RS Sling and rear sight

I've had this rifle for a long time and never was sure if it was a RS or a R with a Redfield sight added.

The serial number is 5723xx. The sling is 7/8" and looks like embossed leather.

I have never seen a picture of an original sling.

The rear sight has an unmarked blank in the dove tail.

The rifle is in great condition and I hope it is a RS. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Bill
