The rifle was converted to a sporter by Harvey Rodgers while at Hart Arms and has a Hart 3 round conversion on the magazine and a Hart bolt sleeve sight. The rifle is illustrated in Lenzs book Muzzle Flashes.
Lenz did all the illustrations in the book and even went so far as to accurately draw in the grain of the wood so we could identify the rifles years later. I have little doubt that it is the same rifle, and I suspect upon closer inspection we will find Hart Arms on the sling as they sold there own slings.
Michael told me one time he had found the 69 that is mentioned in the third paragraph. The final paragraph reminds me of Jerry Fisher and the way he talks about the "wood hawks".
