Title: Re: Straight Cocking Piece Question

Thanks for the responses.  This rifle is a 1903 build so the bolt's probably not original.  Someone ground down the front area of the bolt sleeve to make clearance for the Lyman receiver sight.  They also put her in a modern Bishop stock.  Sort of like putting heels on Daisy Duke.  Wait, that actually sounds pretty good.  Anyway, she is a candidate for a new barrel and a CMP legal configuration.
