Hi all. I've been looking for a 25-06 and this one popped up online for (what seemed like) a reasonable price, so I snagged it. Only problem is that it appears that it could be a Frankengun (even aside from the stock, which does not seem to be original to this gun).
Please take a look at the pics and let me know if you think the barrel is original to the receiver. I can deal with having the barreled action, but if the barrel was added, I will probably return it due to safety concerns.
Thank you for your help.
Coltsman stock
L61R action
Serial 529xxx
Receiver says Imported by Stoeger along right side of receiver, under the stock.
Barrel is marked:
Sako
Cal..25-06 across the top in typical fashion.
Barrel is stamped A on bottom opposite caliber designation.
No sights or leaf/hood.
