For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

1950 serial numbers in this range were K84150-K104047. It was probably produced as the "K-38 Target Masterpiece."

Production of this model began in 1947 and continued through 1957, at which point it was continued as the "Model 14." It should have a Patridge front sight and micrometer click rear sight.
