I found a J.C. Higgins rifle for sale. Looks like 60's vintage (just a guess). The action is stamped FN Mauser. The gun as a whole looks about 75-80%. The safety is Win 70 style. Caliber is 30-06. Bore is great. Action feels tight. The price is $500.00. I was thinking about buying it and using the action for a rebuild in 35 Whelen. The gun is good on it's own, but I have a couple of 06's already. Is this a good price? The J.C. Higgins markings are only on the barrel. The action markings are where they should be.

Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.
