The bore is absolutely gorgious, bright sharp rifling and a very tight muzzle! I have a number of No. I plan a trip to the range early Monday morning and hopefully it will be a good shooter. I just got it at an estate auction on thursday night and I'm still trying to find out exactly what it is.

The stock is not cut for volley sights and there is no stock disc. LV Steve, thanks much for the response! The stock stamping says No. I believe the Weedon repair depot left several marks on these guns if they went throught the WWII refurb process. Have a look at the underside of the wrist for any markings. I cannot see a unit disc on the right side of the butt nor any evidence of the volley sight. Given that there were about 1.2 million made and yours is a Remington in the 60k range, I would guess 1914-15. I believe that all the production took place 1914-1916. You will have to remove the action from the stock to see, or at the very least the handguard. IIRC, the date is on the barrel just forward of where it is screwed into the receiver. You have no info on Canadian made Para Ordnance. When Was My Gun Made? Firearm Dates by Serial Number.
