Manufactured in 1967 in Belgium, this Olympian Grade rifle features a sporter weight barrel manufactured without sights. The top of the receiver has a Leupold 3x9 VARI-X II scope. The barrel is blue. The serrated trigger is gold. The bolt, extractor and follower are polished and the remaining parts are a satin gray. The right front of the receiver ring is engraved with a bugling elk in a wooded scene. The left side is engraved with a moose in a field scene and the remainder of the receiver is relief scroll leaf engraved with a punch dot background. The trigger guard is engraved with a bear and the hinged floor plate is engraved with a buck set in a wooded scene. There is also deep relief scroll leaf engraving below the buck and on the attaching metal. The trigger guard is signed "AM." There is a 2 inch wedge of scroll engraving on each side of the breech end of the barrel. The stock is extra fancy select walnut with a high gloss finish, very fine line checkering and floral and punch dot hand carving on the forearm and grip area, contrasting forend and grip cap with a diamond shaped brass plaque inset in the grip cap, raised comb, cheekpiece, vented Pachmayr White Line recoil pad and sling swivel studs. Complete with a Browning carrying case and Bianchi leather sling.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The rifle retains 98% plus of the original blue with loss limited to the muzzle and 99% plus of the original satin gray finish showing only the slightest handling marks. A couple very small patches of pin point pitting are present on the bolt assembly. The stock is very fine with some minor pressure dents and scratches. Mechanically excellent. The scope has clear optics. The case is fine.
