Should also have the cartouches in the stock around the front cross bolt, as well be missing the refurb stamp on the receiver cover. The refurb stamp will be either a square with a diagonal line, or a diamond with a line left to right in the middle.
I have a 53 in a laminate stock with all matching numbers and no ###xx, but it is a refurb. Has the refurb mark. No ###x and all matching numbers is not, on its own, confirmation of a non-refurb.

Agreed, regardless though its still a nice looking specimen.
It's true, I stabbed the Kool-Aid man and he turned into a jug full of skittles. Taste the rainbow.

Sadly, the "golden" bayo on my '51 is starting to lose the colouring...whatever caused it in the first place (cosmoline? Electroplating for a "parade" rifle? etc, no-one agrees), is wearing off.
Perhaps while cleaning and oiling after using corrosive, I should have been more careful in avoiding wiping the bayonet, I dunno.
Still love my '51, but I just picked up a '55 with a spring-loaded safety, curved gas block and chrome barrel to be my regular shooter.

That was kind of a #### move but I appreciate your...wait, that's why I haven't seen him lately! f**k... I guess after deteriorating to a family guy stand-in his career was pretty much over anyways.
