Welcome and congrats on your find. You too will get the "itis"!!!

Find the dis-assembly instructions and clean it good. The feed ramp has to be kept clean or it develops feed problems. It is really a great gun, though, and very accurate.

Have fun with the restoration. Sometimes half the fun is working on your firearms inyour shop, very relaxing. I look forward to seeing your work. Welcome to the forum also!

Beautiful. I'm starting in April on my Model 30. While the stock is being refinished I'm going to do a USMC first rate clean up on the rest of the rifle.
