Sometimes you just step in it. I Went to get my car inspected and decided to go into a small shop known only for military surplus that was nearby. As soon as i saw it I knew I just had to take it home.

It has the cassic PA setup: Tasco scope with see-through mounts!
He threw in the box of Winchester 200 grain power points that came with it. Only 3 empties!
Took the sting out of the inspection.

Nice find! Opportunity and preparedness wins the day every time!
