[QUOTE="leemozoid, post: 2334523, member: 28646"] No. Neither came from the CMP. They are 1958 Type 1 NMs (verified by the CMP records). 666 is unfired since manufacture. 665 is still a 98% rifle although it has been shot in matches and the front and rear sights upgraded to NM (unhooded rear) per the 1959 regulations. I wrote an article for the GCA Journal on them but the infighting and fallout from that ultimately led to my leaving the community and selling off all of my rifles but these and "Ole's Rifle". I used to have a significant collection and actually ran for the GCA Board of Directors at one time. Now I just have four (the three previously mentioned and a 5.62 HRA for my shooter). [/QUOTE]
