OP Paul4 Campfire Regular P Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 616 Northern NM	1962 model 70 featherweight 243 in very good condition. I’ve never fired it so it’s time to let it go. 1500 shipped from me to ffl. I can send higher resolution photos via text or email and there are more pictures in the image gallery if interested. I’m not receiving pm notifications to my email so if I’m slow to respond I apologize but will try to check pms regularly. Thanks for looking. Last edited by Paul4; 04/23/21.
