I can't tell much about them from the listing, but it looks to me the stock on the smaller rifle has been shattered and repaired. There are chips out of it around and behind the locks; the rear lock mounting screw is a crude replacement; the bottom of the pistol grip obviously has broken off. I would want to see the head of that stock. I would seriously doubt the statement that the finish on the wood is original as to either rifle. Other than those comments they are a mystery. What is the condition of the bores? Are the actions tight? Ribs loose? Other repairs evident? There are so many other factors. I'm not running them down; just trying to answer your question. I find for myself the best way to evaluate a firearm is to start with the notion that it's a piece of shit and then let the gun convince me of its attributes, remaining skeptical all along. Objectivity is essential. Otherwise you can let your mind gloss over the faults. That approach is your best chance to avoid being "dazzled." Those rifles could well have potential. That second one probably needs a stock. JMHO, YMMV. Curl I have edited this post to insert the photos and description from the G&H advertisement. |
