This classic all original rifle is in very good condition, it functions perfectly with no rust or pitting anywhere and light scratches from hunting and safe. There is a small amount of wear from carrying. My uncle bought it new in late 60's or early 70's and hunted with it for a couple years before passing away. I shot a few boxes from it and hunted a few years with it then put it away myself many years ago. Time for it to get back in the woods.... I am listing it without sights or scope but would include the Leupold Vari-x II 1-4 for additional money. Please send me your email by PM for more pictures. This can only be shipped to a licensed dealer where it is legal and I will charge you whatever actual shipping costs. No urgency for me to sell so lowball offers not needed... Rifle alone $485 Scope $200 with rifle, not available separately.
The holes have been plugged since the original sights were removed over 40 years ago so the threads should be fine. Unfortunately, I don't know where the sights went...
It's all the same rifle and is right handed. I am a lefty and don't think they ever made a left hand action in 742 carbine. Sorry for the confusion, have no idea how they got so flipped around.
