Description:

Blued steel barrels with a ramped blade front and fixed rear sights on the matted solid rib which also hosts scope blocks holding a Leupold LPS 1.5-6x42mm scope. The blued sideclipped boxlock action displays light scroll engraving with line borders. The rifle features bushed firing pins, chambers with ejectors, double triggers, and a tang mounted automatic safety switch. Beautifully figured, multi-point checkered forend and pistol grip stock with black plastic grip cap, raised cheekpiece, and black plastic buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Excellent overall, retaining 99% original blue finish with some light oxidation near the muzzles, a slight scuff on the left muzzle, minor handling evidence, and sharp checkering on the stock and forend. The scope optics are sharp. Case is fine. Right ejector hammer does not hold when forend is removed, otherwise mechanically excellent.
