bsw bolt good?

The number 9 and 1 on the one you posted bothers me a little. The 4 seems closer…Here are two of my matching bsw rifles:

I don’t see any signs that the bolt root has been shaved, do you? That is my main concern. Actually, the bolt root is like yours, no tool marks. Thanks for those posts.

Underside of the bolt has a large B with small eagle to the right and a faint larger eagle under. I don’t have a good clear pic of the underside.
 
So, I just bought the bsw 1939 that the bolt was in. Unfortunately the stock was duffle cut and missing the hand guard and bandspring. It is all matching otherwise.

That is one of the hardest parts to get right for fakers. The metal finish onto which the digits were applied. Yours looks unmessed with to me also.
