It would be hard to find something more classic than one of these. There seem to be lots of them out there right now, I recall looking at a site than had a ton of them listed, it was something like Simpsons or Simpsons Ltd. out of Illinois IIRC.

I have seen some really nice ones in the $350 - $450 price range. Pretty darned good for something does not even need restocking unless you have a desire to do it.

I bought mine from Simpsons several weeks ago. Just make sure the description states good condition for the stock otherwise expect to be replacing it in which case just buy a new modern rifle. I really like mine and I already hunted with it, one successful shot and my freezer is full. I love the old worn finish on the stock. I'm using the iron sights so no weight added to the gun. Mine has the 20.5" barrel and weighs 6 lbs, awesome carrying gun!
