700P identifying marks

Re: 700P identifying marks

My .308 SPS tactical says "TACTICAL" on the barrel, but what I'm trying to figure out is if there is a difference between the 26" SPS varmit and the 26" 700P...other than the stocks? that's all...I was thinking that the receiver had "700P" stamped on it.
 
Re: 700P identifying marks

My 700P has no special markings on it. I recall the box indicating it as a 700 police but nothing special on the rifle itself. Hope this helps.

Re: 700P identifying marks

The two rifles have different finish on the barrel and action.

The 700P has what I think is a parkerized finish and the 700SPS has a black oxcide finish.

I have not seen any "700P" or "Police" markings on my 700P.

Pretty sure the P in 700P stands for Parkerized.
