Looks like two "gas traps" rifles were sold. I am certain that I know who bought s/n 6927, suppose to have an original gas trap barrel and stock is close - but with a few photos it is difficult to make a good identification. The receiver should be replaced and the front ferrule with lip is missing, it sold for $14950.00
The other gas trap is serial number 1605, all repro parts on a receiver that also has rebuild markings on the leg, I think this rifle is a good example of all the repro parts that are available. This rifle sold for $4025.00 which is interesting because in 2005, it sold for $9775.00 by Rock Island and was said to have been restored in 1998 and has fake cartouches too
