Get us some pics of that dang thing BSA, been drooling down my shirt since yesterday.
Yeah, I've been drooling too. Here's the story: I went to the lgs to sell my tikka superlite to a guy from a local forum and my good ol buddy at the gun shop pulls this rifle out and says,"I was hoping you would show up, i have this rifle you might be interested in"..... I said, is it a pre 64? He said, you know it is.. he said, it's a beautiful pre war too. "You won't find one any nicer than this". I said, Don, I came here to sell a rifle, not buy one!! When he handed it to me, my jaw dropped to the floor. That's when I sent you the text. I looked at the serial number (22xxx) and said, damn this is an early one too. My guess was 1939, but I was off by a year and it was actually made in 38. That's a second year pre 64. The guy I was selling my superlite to said, if you didn't know any better, you would think this rifle was only a couple years old. I looked down the bore and the chamber looks new and the lands are sharp. I'm imagining a sub moa shooter as I peer through that bore. Even the steel butt plate looked new. I say it's 95% condition, but I'm being pretty modest here. Its probably more like 98%..
