Manufactured circa October of 1942. Blade front and peep rear sights, the former with the metal screw cap on the rear, the latter with flat adjustment drums, "open arrow" markings and "BATTLE RANGE" elevation drum. "W.R.A." markings are present on the bolt, "C46025 WRA" marked machined trigger guard, "D28290-W.R.A." marked trigger housing, "C-46008-1 W.R.A." marked hammer, safety and "D35382-W.R.A." marked operating rod, the rod being the "angled" style with no relief cut, and the right receiver leg marked "D28291-2". Except for a "C" on the underside, the barrel is unmarked. The smooth pistol grip stock is marked with a circled serifed "P" on the wrist, "W.R.A./G.H.D." and a crossed cannon cartouche on the left side, with a Winchester "2S" marked checkered steel buttplate.

Excellent, with 97% of the original parkerized finish, with some bright edge/cycling wear, a few patches of spotting, and mild handling marks. The barrel shows the start of a gray patina near the muzzle. The gas cylinder retain fine original Dulite finish. The stock is very fine, with some light scattered dents and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
