New Haven Classic SM. SNG965xx
Sent to Jim Kobe to shorten the barrel to 20”, install new NECG front sight, ensure it feeds very well, tune trigger, upsize scope mount holes for #8 screws, install Leupold QRW bases. Trigger and feeding are outstanding
Later sent Eddie Fosnough for barrel fluting (think he sends that work to Karl Kampfeld), cerakoting, stock painting, pad installation on factory stock. Cerakote and stock paint are perfect. Fluting preserved all factory barrel markings. Looks perfect
LOP 13 1/8”. Shortened for use with a backpack on
I put this together for a bear rifle for AK and N Idaho, but never carried it. Shot less than 50 rounds
This lil hand full of dynamite can be yours for $1500 shipped and insured to lower 48 from individual, $50 more to ship from FFL
First right of refusal to the two gentlemen who PM’d me in the order they came in. First I’ll take it after that if the two gents pass.

Classic SM with what appears to be a chopped and fluted barrel … nice looking rifle.

Painted factory stock, or other? Very nicely done either way.
Do or do not, there is no try.

Painted factory stock. It exceeded my expectations when returned from Eddie.

Guessing around 7.5 lbs but can weight it Fri afternoon when I get back in town.
The two who PM’d me passed, so the first I’ll take it gets a nice rifle

I’ll get the weight Fri. I know it is much lighter and well balanced. Felt muzzle heavy to me before the barrel work

Yes, the OEM barrel is a truck axle! That’s a great looking rig and a good price.
