    Question, where do I get a list of all the places where the serial # has to match?
    I thought I saw someone say 8 places. Where are those 8 places?
    thx
    Off the top of my head from looking at my own rifle over the last few days:
    Rear sight
    Rear sight slide
    Bolt
    Bolt cocking piece thing
    Floor plate
    Buttplate
    Front band
    Rear band
    Inside stock
    Inside handguard
    Cleaning rod (probably won't match)

    How common is it to have one or a few non-matching parts on it and how much does it kill the value?
    thx
