I would pay it, then change that screwed up bolt handle and the recoil pad, this would leave you with a rifle that your great-grand children would lust after.


And piss off the Parker Hale mounts and Redfield, mount a modern quality piece of glass like a Kaps 4x36 (long tube) in a set of Alaskaarmsllc mounts (30mm).


These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
