It's interesting to see how we become enamored with these and how we started down this long and winding road.
My first pre 64 came from a client. It was her Dad's rifle and he had passed and she had no desire to keep it. It was a FWT 308 in fairly decent shape. The metal was fine but the stock finish was not good. I paid her price of $400 (this was 25+ yrs ago)and scoped it with a Leupold 2.5X8 and hunted it. Over the years the finish deteriorated more and more and I finally had the stock redone. I haven't used it in years and years and perhaps it's time to bring her back into the light. This gun started my quest for all the FWT which I now have and am working on the more obscure std chambering's.
