Also found that the plum color might be due to some kind of contamination's in a re-bluing process but that does not explain why the color is also present at the covered over screw holes for the removed scope does it? Any ideas on this?
It may have been removed from sniper duty and reblued at some point and then had a subsequent refurbishment later on.
