Having this gun shipped to my local Cabelas to take a peak at it...with the current 10% off used gun sale, this can be had for under $700.

This is obviously a modified gun, but is it worth $700? Any idea brand of stock it is? Any specific items I need to check before buying?

Serial number is 162931. I'm not a Pre-64 expert and would appreciate any input. Thanks in advance.



No need to be secretive here. Without sending a PM, I'll lay it out on the table as I see it..... This is what I see from the pictures:

1. pre 64 model 70 std. wt. made in 1950.
2. Wears a very nice synthetic stock, which appears to be a Brown Precision at first glance.
3. Metal looks to be cerakoted graphite black.
4. Seller (Cabela's) says it has an "excellent" bore.

My honest opinion believes you'd be crazy not to buy it at $700.00. Now if someone else sees it differently, I bet the OP would love to hear your thoughts...
