Hey all, Anyone care to chime in on the story or odd reserialization of this bolt? I picked it up for one of my early Sauer rifles that was in need of a bolt.
It is a matching typical 147G bolt in that all components bear SN 7266 and the proper early JPS markings (e/114/116 and the various subcontractor symbols). The shroud, safety, cocking piece, firing pin, extractor and collar are all original. The bolt body has all the correct proofs, but has a new serial # °719. The punch mark made me think it was a possible depot job, but I am really just guessing.
I have seen a few similarly renumbered bolts on eBay of late.
Pics attached, it was difficult to get the smallest markings, but I hope they help. Any assistance is appreciated.
