1942 XO-48

So a nothing special refurb. Needed a '42 for the family and this one had the XO-48 mark so why not. It actually has marks all over it. Been through a few refurbs I'm thinking.

Nice one, still retains some of the triangle 25 arsenal orange paint on the shank numbers. Maybe someday we'll learn what the XO/MO stamps represent.

Looks to be in really good shape. Don't see the XO ones very often.

Nice! I've only seen an XO-47 in the wild & that was at Cabela's about 5yrs ago. Congrats on the addition to your collection.

Nice one. I've yet to find one like that.
