This pistol is accompanied by the packing slip as well as a Railway Express Agency receipt that shows a declared value of $103.00 for this pistol.
The 1965 Springfield Armory National Match pistols featured a H&R marked barrel which is believed to be Harrington & Richardson. These barrels were only utilized in the pistols from the 1965 run.
