Picked up another MK-85 today. This one has several different features from my others. Please help me figure out what I have. It is walnut and blued. Unfortunately, it had been converted to 209 priners and the original system lost. I had enough parts to get it back to #11 ignition. It has some honest wear. Thin bluing here and there and some minor wear on the stock. Also has what looks like 20 years of bore butter in the bore. Absolutely rust free. Looks used, but cared for.
Now the differences. It has a sharp funnel like crown with 6 lands. I don't think I've seen a Green Mountain barrel with a similar crown. Any idea what it is and a twist rate?
The ramrod is grey and appears to be fiberglass. One end is plain. The guide for the ramrod is not screwed into place it appears to be pinned or welded.
I have attached some pictures. Thanks for any help.
