Damn, BSA, I think you're slipping to walk off from that. Just sayin'


You know id be slipping if i put weaver mounts on it. grin


Only if you put the ring nuts on the wrong side of the action. grin

Seriously, if you are calling it "nice", it has to be pretty good . . . an original but cut stock is $200 - $300 . . . or a Mickey. $475 sounds like a price for an action alone, maybe with bottom metal, does it not? I'm not looking for another Pre '64, but I don't know if I could walk away. Prices really are low!


Yeah. The stock is not original. I wish it was. Here's a pic. I did buy it yesterday. Couldn't let it slip through my hands. Too good of a deal to pass up.

I'm going to glass bed this one and work a little magic on her. Shot it today and I can see some potential. I did, however, see signs of pressure on the barrel. This one is not freefloated. I think that will help, as will some good old glass bedding. Trigger is already fine tuned and cleaned up a bit (did that last night). This one will be ready to hunt shortly...
