Bought this one new in September 1976 (made in 1974) from my local hardware store, plain modified barrel, took it back to APG MD with me and killed deer and pheasant hunting through the post rod & gun club. I replaced the bolt buffer about 12 years ago when it got brittle and broke to pieces - ordered the new one from Stu Wright.

One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.
