While I will admit the two guns are certainly very similar, I don't believe it can be said with any degree of certainty that the rifle in the rack is the EXACT SAME rifle purchased by Mr. Petrov at auction. I am sure that there were numerous rifles with the white stock fittings, to come out of Hart. In fact, I saw one on auction a few years ago, that had been sent to Emil Koshollek and Alvin Linden for additional work at a later date. It may be the same rifle in the photo, but to state THAT IT IS, is a little presumptious. Wishful thinking perhaps? JMHO G'DAY
