The rifle in question is shown below. Thing that puzzles me is there’s no iron sights. I do not own this rifle but thinking about buying it. The S/N is 99110C which puts the date of MFG in 1960. It is my understanding the Sporters were stopped in 1959.
Not sure how these photos will show up; they appear to be to small to do anything with. My main concern is this doesn’t have a front or rear sight and it appears to have never had a front sight.

Production date is 1959 but I suspect better pics will be required to verify it’s originality.
