Some time back there was a discussion regarding the proper follower arm for a 200k rifle. Seems to me the direction went to a flat back arm for this range. Am I remembering correctly or is the later style proper. I have 233546 which came with the later style. The rifle was mostly correct including flush nut sight, just want to replace whatever small parts need replacing. Also, op rod catch, early type with "o" accelerator or no

Your 233546 should have the later follower arm like the Lend Lease rifles, operating rod catch is also late and without any finish or markings - like the
Lend Lease rifles -
Thank you SirComment

I found some additional information which also might help you
I have some incomplete data on s/n 290023 which was sold in May 2015. Receiver RE 2 -9SA no anneal. Stock faint SA GHS large
wheel. Trigger guard C-46025-1-SA, trigger housing rev 5 hammer rev 2, safety -6 no extra hole.
Bolt revision 2 RE 1, barrel S-A 6-41 no chrome, follower revision 4 bullet guide B8875-1SA
During this time period you could expect parts and drawing numbers to overlapComment

early 1941 rifles
The "high hat" follower was used by Springfield before the summer of 1940 and Winchester used them
thoughout the war. I have a nice S-A 1-41 barrel (no chrome) in my 216xxx rifle which has had some
restoration over the years.dscn2762.jpgdscn2758.jpgdscn2757.jpgdscn2780.jpgdscn2784.jpgComment

Mine came as I described. Bought it at an auction about 4-5 months ago. Gas port area is not chromed on this one either.Comment
