This past weekend I was at the local GS an asked about a target grade .22.
I could not afford an Anshutcz or a Walther but wanted something of quality.
First thing he grabs was a Mossberg 151MB. handed it to me then went to other models he had...
Truth be told from the get go I was smitten with the Mossy but played it cool.
I am a sucker for a Mancelier gun stock.
Well I did not buy on the spot... considerable self restraint involved.
You see I was not comfortable with the front sight, it seemed jacked way to the right inside the hood.I initially thought it may be adjustable but with some reseach found the 151 and other '50s Mossys hat a changeable front sight pin.
I went back yesterday and pointed out the front sight was off, the rear sling mount was missing, and the rear breech cap had plier marks.
Offered a low ball price and She accepted it!
Now this sweet looking Vintage .22 is in the house! I need to clean and lube it and give her a try...
The often missing front hood is there,While the rear sling swivel is missing the front is there, and the front multiple pin sight is need of work...
Other that that the gun is in very nice shape externally.
Let's see what I can do here.
