Hello all; newbie here. I need some help identifying a rifle I purchased a few days ago - mainly as to whether or not it may be a National Match.
First and foremost - The receiver is a SA with a serial of 1500296, draw number D 28291 17. Front sight stamped NM with the numbers "062" below. Barrel is stamped NM close to the front sight in the usual spot. Gas cylinder marked NM on the front most swing swivel. Operating rod marked NM on the handle, serial of 7790722-SA. Barrel is marked SA 7791035, with the date code 4 63. Additional markings on the barrel after the date and serial; Y22, P, M, and an anvil with three stars above it (Forgive me for not knowing the proper term for this mark). Trigger housing is marked D28290-12-SA. Hammer is marked SA 5546008. Safety is marked HRA, which kinda concerns me. Trigger itself has what appears to be 2 bold 4's on the right (ejection) side. Bolt is marked 6528287-SA, with an A15 below it. Rear sight is hooded, but no NM markings. Hood is marked 595, and elevation knob is marked "WC." Stock has no markings but is glass bedded - best I can tell.
I'll try to get a few pictures up within the next day or so. Thanks for reading.
