Type 38 in a one piece stock

After seeing this rifle and it's twin (rack number 02) on the
rack at a local shop last year, I was hoping to be able to get
one or both before they sold. I had too many other things on my
plate until this week. A nice bonus was that the price had
dropped a good bit, I was lucky it was still available. I
wasn't able to get both, but a friend scored the other. These
were part of a large collection that was sold to the shop by the
heirs of the late collector. There was no info that accompanied
the rifles, so it's not known how nearly identical looking
rifles with rack #s 02 and 03 ended up in the same collection.
No series mark, and based on various online sources the
production date must be at the end or shortly after WW1. I don't
see and matching numbers, assembly numbers or otherwise. The
bore is really nice, and the dust cover was a nice bonus. It's
numbered but non matching as well.
