Quite a few...and I still dont understand why. My father was a 788 junkie, carrying a well worn .223 carbine with a 3-9 Weaver for as long as I remember. I saw more coyotes and cats fall to that gun in my life than any other. After he passed, some brotherly love caused all of his guns to wind up in various pawnshops and gunsafes across the who knows where (with the exception of his CZ527 that replaced the 788 at the end)

A couple years later,I got on a 788 kick, at one time having 4. I finally decided the junky little things are / were bargain rifles, and didnt really do anything any better than a 700. I dont have any now, and dont intend for that to change. I also know why my father retired the 788 for the 527.....I just dont know why it took him so long.
