    So this Van Orden rifle was originally sold to a civilian, it's not "U.S. Property" marked, is this correct?

      My understanding from the information that I can find, he was on the Army Shooting Team. He shot this rifle until he traded it back to Van Orden for a newer one. It was then sent back to Winchester and a new Winchester barrel was installed. It came back to Van Orden and then sold again. The info is on the Van Orden build card.
