. . . plated trigger, trigger guard, and complete bolt. (Swept back handle)
This rifle has the grooved receiver for scope mounting.
I’m thinking it was mfg’d in the 1950s.
What say ye? 1950s or what?
Thanx-a-bunch, —Jim

Per a notable author in his book on the Model 69, the chrome bolt with matching chrome trigger guard came into full use circa 1958 although there were some rifles with chrome bolts with blued trigger guards earlier than that.
The stock style was also changed in mid-1959 so if you have a picture of the stock forend we can tell you if it was earlier or later than that date.
