Is 59000 a little late for the original Model 70 purchase? Not that it is a big deal, however. That looks like a nice pre-war rifle to start with. To answer a question by Stuvwxyz, the Unertl mounts would use the existing holes in the receiver and the other set would be on the barrel.
Winpoor, Bartlein for the barrel? Frank Green just built a similar rifle so I know they have the right specs.
Mr Pipewhiner, in a perfect world 48,000 and under would be the cats azz!, I also have a list of General, or Col Van Ordens snipers, I had an 06 Target one(1) GD sn away , it did not shoot as good as my 56' so I sold it!
This Guns America Im thinking of buying goes against the grain, I hit the buy now on a sniper that had been in a corner for 30 or 40 or 50 years, thought it was mine, called the seller Monday morning at 7 am and he told me he sold it 20 min earlier! I told him I had hit the buy now button, he said he had not looked at the computer and went by phone calls! it was a Van Orden with a non checkered sporter stock! I thought G A worked like GB, if you hit buy now it was yours! WRONG!!!! Ive got photos of that gun somewhere, it still runs my BP up just thinking about it!!! This old FK knew what he had, he did not even bother to wipe the dog dam thing down , gone at his price in less than 24 hrs!!! LOL very best winpoor
