Should be easy enough to remove it. Thread protector or remove 1/2 inch from the barrel. As for me, I cannot stand the looks and lines of those and would prefer to throw a spear as to have one infesting my gunsafe, but that is just me.
Lots of Vangurads, Used semi Custom Mausers, and other 25/06's that I would much rather have.
Could you live with a 6mmAI instead of a 25/06 if 'someone' wanted to make you a great deal and rescue you from the abomonation that is called the Mossmuck 4x4?
LOVE God, LOVE your family, LOVE your country, LIKE guns and sports.
