I posted this rifle some time ago on another board. It is an ar43, MO assembeled. A very crisp rifle though there is some patina from poor storage. The serial number on the reciever is: 6680n the bolt however is clearly marked 6680a. Ordinarily I would just declare bolt M/M and be done with it but a close examination with a loop shows a broken bunter that stamped the last number "0" on the bolt, trigger, & ejector box housing is a pefect match. The barrel has been "scrubed" of any manufacture codes, but there is a wa26 which has been struck into the barrel after the barrel codes were belt sanded off. There is a poorly stuck"0" at the 6 o'clock position on the barrel shoulder, the same size as an "02" rebarrel marking,but nothing else. Clearly a rebarrel/rebuild, but when. Bolt has small gas holes. Buttstock and hand gauard are numbered in the channel.Intersting k98. JH
