Thanks, brother! It already looks a whole lot better than it did in these pictures. Luckily, all that speckle came right off and the finish is still pretty darn good for the age of this rifle. The receiver is case hardened so it will never look perfect again, but the original wood is incredible. The most amazing part of this gun is the loading magazine assembly. There's no possible way any rifle company could build something like this anymore and make money. It's so unique.Dang nice M39.....not a 39A or a M39M, a M39. Great pickup and a wonderful addition. Congrats man.
