Do you know who made the rifle or any history on it?

Cool rifle. I would smooth up that muzzle a GREAT deal, if I was trying to sell it.

Doesn’t affect the accuracy.  Shoots pretty much in one hole at 30 yards off the bench.

Overall, that is a nice rifle, but, what did happen to the muzzle?  ???

That is a weird way to finish a muzzle. I magnified it and there seems be numbers or something there.If a lathe isn't available a vertical milling machine with the vise set at true 90 degrees can be used and checked with a machinists square.

Hey Guys,  I appreciate all the comments about what might be considered cosmetic problems with the muzzle.  I actually think the concentric rings are kind of cool.  The muzzle is crowned perfectly and the gun shoots very well.  And,  you can’t beat the price for a solid well made gun with quality parts.
