Serial No. dates to 1932.
Depths of the Great Depression.
I went with the date and originality over finish.
My kind of gun.
I will, however, need to get a Lyman No. 2 in order to get any accuracy.
Got it at Cabelas.

Nothing wrong with that rifle at all. I have a few like it that I use to hunt hogs with on my ranch here in Texas. Best part. I can lay them down and not have to worry much about harming them like my really nice rifles. Enjoy it and have fun.

What is the serial number (so that I can add it to my research survey)?

Plain maybe but it looks like one of the “transitional” carbines.

We have no serial number on it to see if it is a "transitional". Sure looks like one. I have a 99%er in my collection # 1100457, PR dated 1-25-1936. Has the 22-E rear sight with the 1927 date. Also, has a mag. tube from an earlier SRC from the factory. One of the nicest carbines I own. Big Larry
Add to that it got a good coat of Ren. Wax yesterday along with my 1925 M92 SRC. Boy, do they shine. Big Larry

Serial no. is 1085xxx
I gave Bert the full serial no.
It is an early transitional, through the PR in July of 1932.
