SockPuppet: Good for you - what a cool Rifle! Is this Model 39 going to be a "collector" or a "shooter"? Enjoy it whichever way you go. Sure is in great shape for a 49 year old Rifle. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Hold into the wind VarmintGuy VG, it will be a shooter. It came from a local collection where the gentleman had passed away, so his widow consigned them to this shop. The tag indicated that it's never been fired, though I have no way to prove that and it didn't come with the box. It has a few small handling marks and I see no reason not to use it as JM intended, though I'll use care.

That octagon barrel would be hard to pass on.
SWEET!

Took it out yesterday and the old girl shot just fine. I sure enjoy shooting rimfire levers. Both of the daughters tried it out and the oldest definitely took a shine to it. She's getting pretty good at dropping hints on the guns she likes.

WOW!!!! I love it. I have the same one, only it is scoped. My dad gave it to me when he stopped hunting and even having any interest in guns. I absolutely LOVE shooting it. One of my favorite guns. Congratulations on the great score!!

I know where one of those is sitting right now, what's going rate on these? To be honest, the bling turned me off when I picked it up.
