Mfr. in 1952, 26" Chopper Lump Steel Barrels, London Proofed for 75 Grain Cordite 500 Grain Bullet. Fantastic Using Gun, that still Retains 98 % Blue, 98% + Varnish and 70, - 85% Original Case Color.

Great Gun That's Ready for that Once in a Life Time Big Game Hunt! $ 39,995" Link is: http://www.daverifflegunsales.com/images/guns/g897.html By the way, Dave's a nice fella to deal with, and may well deal off that price. True, its a boxlock rather than a sidelock, but so what for a great hunter. I've bought some bolt guns from him in the past and his descriptions are usually spot on. |
