Later they used a grooved one with the oval logo on the toe.

Both of these were smooth with the logos stamp in the center, the later one was also used on the 1922 Sporters and all I've seen on those are off center. There are differences in the butt plates the early one were symmetrical with the early circular logo in the center, later ones had the oval logo in the center and the top mounting screw hole is off center to the right. With the magazine close to the barrel the early magazine end had some the knurling ground off for clearance, this was done on all examples I've seen. The early magazine tubes had a simple pin and L shaped slot design and the tube was very close to the barrel with almost no gap, they later used a spring loaded clip to hold the inner magazine tube in, this required the tube being moved farther from the barrel. The early bolts had the same extractors as the earlier Model 1903’s which were mounted in a groove in the top of the bolt and were not visible through the ejection port, that was changed to a stronger design mounted on the right side of the bolt that showed through the ejection port. I would be interested in some features of your rifle, it falls into a range I have little data on and there were a few design changes made early in production which your gun may or may not have. The serial numbers started with 1000 so yours is an early gun, putting it in the first or second year of production, but I don't know just when production started. Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing it through.If you really want some exact information you could get a letter from the Cody Museum, there was some information on doing that posted recently - costs $75. Ultimately, if you find entertainment in series such as Rectify or the recent Sandra Bullock movie The Unforgivable, then I think this is worth a look, although I don't think this Australian production will outmatch either of those in writing quality or casting. even if fairly cliche for this storyline.

The acting is decent enough, and there is some intensity which is a good start. Information is slow to be had, and we don't really know what kind of a person she is or anything that has happened to develop her, inside of prison or out. Plot unrolling happens by character discovery and interactions, as well as the art of deciphering any kind of relationships and who's who. We start with following along a young woman who is just getting out of prison on parole and apparently returns to the very small hometown she started out in as a young girl. The style of this miniseries is to be dropped into a situation with no context or information.
