Yes, the forearm tip as well as the grip cap & recoil pad were added after it left the factory. Your serial number is within the range the club has factory records for, so if you click on Factory Records Service you can request the info & find out it's production date & when & in what configuration it left the factory. Pictures of early L461's are here on the forum if you would like to see it in it's original factory condition.Thank you for all the info so the added fore end of the grip is not a standard issue item but was added later?
Don’t be too disgusted, use it as a live and learn moment. In the 60’s and even into the 70’s the angled fore tip was fashionable. Weatherby imitations were seen on all sorts of makes. You’d have to locate an original stock to pull it back to its factory look, but it’s probably not worth the added expense, and leg work to locate a proper replacement. It looks like a shooter grade rifle with a nice 4x and original mounts. I’d clean it up and enjoy it. Hope this helps.Paul
Can you direct me to a thread about the factory look.
I'm rather disgusted about the fore arm tip.
Why do people add this?
Can this be returned to the original look?
