She hasn't shown any interest in hunting since she was very young, but when Iasked her if she would go, she said yes. In Arizona you can put up to 4 people on your submission and if any are drawn, all are drawn. I put her in the draw to increase my odds of getting drawn. It was actually a lark that she is going hunting with me this year. I have been a member for several years, I just don't post much. I'd be interested in your opinions on the carbine and any thoughts on what the two holes in the sideplate are for. Though it could be brought back to millitary trim. Ihold no hopes that it was an original carbine. Isuspect it was re-barrelled when it was sporterized though.
Odd, but the serial number is in the range of Krag Carbines. Although the metal was reblued, and the sideplate has those two extra holes, the main metal is untouched. Iwas really exited to find this one even though Ihave never been a sporter kind of shooter. The link to the photograph is to the whole album of pictures. This rifle really needs to be hunted with though. More than likely Iwould just get her another rifle. If my daughter needs a scope, we can try the rear sight mounted LERscope. He wasn't sure what they wold be for though. So, what are the two holes likely for? A member on the Cmp forum thought he remembered that the Cmpsold older drill rifles with those two holes. I can only assme that from the lack of response from those much more knowledgable than I, that the two holes in the sideplate are not for a scope moun/ Also, no amount of searching turned up anything of the like.

I can drill, tap, and fit one at the buyer's request but at this time I left it as prepared by the factory. It is worth pointing out that the factory did not fit this slide with an elevation stop set screw. They are an excellent fit for one another and fit without play or binding. The slide is also stamped 57 SME on the underside. Base has the serial number 'L7' in the channel however the slide marked 'H87'. It includes the correct #6-48 mounting screws. The 5/8ā aperture disc is original Lyman and has a. The target knobs set it aside from most of its peers, as most examples of the 57-SME have the stayset coin slot knobs.
It has just completed a full teardown, inspection, cleaning, and reassembly. All other parts are steel.This sight is in excellent shape. Also aluminum are the elevation and windage scale indicator plates. This sight has an all steel slide assembly with an aluminum base.
