Sorry about picture quality old camera
The receiver, bolt, mag well all read HW 1909 and butt plate reads 1909.

What does force matched mean? I would guess the butt plate due to missing part of ID #Gsragtop wrote:Looks like a numbers matching (force matched) laminate, great start to the addiction !!
