Introduced in 1997 with standard markings and proofs. Blade front and notch rear sights, and scope rings installed on the receiver. Features a brilliantly jewelled bolt, gold washed trigger, and tang safety switch. Checkered pistol grip stock with contrasting wood end and grip caps, and a vented Sauer recoil pad.

Excellent overall. 99% original blue finish remains with sharp checkering on the stock and a few light handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
