      49697902.jpgIn this case it was a auction, I thought I had bid too high after looking at the photos for a 2nd time, it looked like a rust case, but it turns out it was the normal finish, there was no rust, but the bore was a dark sewer pipe, but a nights soaking and a brushing brought out nice shiny bore. The only thing that will not clean up like new is the stock, too many dents and dings.

        I wonder what was scratched out? Social Security number, perhaps?

          It looks like someone crudely scratched their name on it.
