Description
This all matching numbered Lithgow is in excellent condition which can be seen by the photos. This may be because it underwent the FTR (Factory Thorough Refurbishment) process post war as as indicated by the FTR stamping on the receiver. The FTR process basically rejuvenates the rifle & any parts that are worn are replaced. As this is all matching numbers, it would appear this didn't have worn parts so didn't need a lot of work done. This is a great example of a matching numbered Lithgow which are getting hard to find in this condition & this would be a great example for a collector & with a mint barrel, an excellent service rifle shooter also. Please view all of the photos carefully as they form the main description & override all others.
