Daryl,
That is what I was kind of getting around to. I'll admit, it is tough. If I parted out the rifle, I would have "pennies" in the action.
These actions, already sporterized so no worries about ruining a collectible milsurp, are few and far between. A few days ago, I saw a G33/40 milsurp stock sell for more than I have in this rifle.
I'll keep and eye out for a Wallack catalog. As it turns out, my Rifleman collection ended at '54, so I went to Ebay and bought '55.
This scope is likely a later addition, as the barrel is drilled and tapped for a Unertl style base.
