The pristine bore is somewhat less than pristine having throat erosion from many rounds fired in it, much less the rust pitting in the neck of the chamber and the first inch of the barrel
Throat
Chamber neck
My estimation of the bore was gained from looking at it when held to a bright light
There was NO rust on the floorplate when I shipped it.
Looks like rust to me
I took this rifle to a local gun show where 8-12 people examined it, to include a collector of Sako's with many for sale on his table and they all agreed that it was a nice example of AV series and my asking price was very reasonable.
Yet no one at the show bought it ?
Krudmarine has a barreled action listed on several sites and describes the barrel as "pristine."
I've all ready contacted the gentleman and assured him that if he is not happy with the barreled action, I'll take it back and refund his money.
Then why not do the same for RUSKY? (only 1 reason why)
Daveinjax: 33 posts and you're slinging names and accusations; really?
Dosen't take any posts to see what's going on here.
Would you feel better if someone w/ 1000 posts said the same?
You have yet to answer why you won't do the right thing.
I am actually surprised to see this behavior from a fellow marine.
A marines integrity is worth alot more than a internet transaction.
Just my .02
