Plenty of cars came out with 5 lugs, but once you put on aluminum wheels, it is no longer stock. Screw holes aren't scopes, Lyman 42 peep sights did come on Model 70's so that is considered "stock"...

How do you shoot a factory rifle that has no iron sights installed from the factory?

If I add iron sights, it ain't factory. My Ruger 77 came with RINGS and NO SIGHTS.

You can't be that stupid to understand you have to scope a sightless rifle, but that doesn't make it stock...

Did the ammo come with that rifle from the factory?

IIRC, the OP featured a pix of a scoped rifle as the first pix in the opening post. Consequently, pix of scoped “ factory rifles sans “irons” would seem appropriate.

A few more unadulterated “factory” rifles with scope only alterations. Not a trigger job among em’.

However, in full disclosure, not one have had a "factory" round down the tube since I've owned them. Can't tell if the ones I purchased pre-enjoyed were used to commit adultery before they followed me home. But that's a minor sin that can be forgiven.

Someone is being just a bit too intense on a post that was meant to just show some nice pics.

For Pete's sake. Let's not suck the fun out of the thread entirely. I was just interested to see what folks have done with rifles that haven't been blue-printed, stocks changed, barrels swapped, etc. Yes, a rifle without sights needs iron or glass. Shrap, God bless your eyes. I can't read the newspaper without glasses much less see iron. If we carry a rifle much it will need a sling or strap. But I don't think adding a scope or sling is quite the same as having the entire rig so reworked that the only thing left that's original is the firing pin.


"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown

Right out of the box, down to the steel buttplate.

I didn't even move the rear sight.

Nice thread RevMike.

First deer and first centerfire, 1980 Rem 700 BDL Custom Deluxe 22-250. Amazing that 1 in 14" worked. Disclaimer: pad and receiver sight added.

Ruger 77 Hawkeye Predator 6.5 Creedmoor in the open country "back east". Cheeckpad, bedded, railed, slinged, bi-podded, yet still factory to me.
