Both are 90% or better, blueing good on both, wood on the 52 is awesome with sharp checkering, it has the swing swivels as well & lyman sight. The 61 is cool as well with in being a 22wmr. Let me know what you think, don't shoot them so mine as well move them. Thanks
Both pre-64 guns........the 52 was made in late 40's I think.

I wonder what sold prices look like on gunbroker over the last 6 months?
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

BIG shout out to jobugg for giving me the opportunity to give these two fine rifles a new home! They arrived packed extremely well. They are every bit as good, if not better than I’d hoped for. Thank you sir!

That’s what I call a happy ending!

Glad you liked them and jsgwoodsman is a great guy to deal with! That 52 was a classic, they don’t make them like that anymore!

A most elegant pair of rifles.

All these posts about nice win 52's. Makes me want to pull my lowly 52B out and sling some lead with it..

Too close for irons, switching to scope...

Ah, you guys have seen this one before... After losing out on the 52 sporter, I told myself the next 52 I see that is a good deal I am not going to pass it up. This is an all original '49 model 52B and it shoots great. I love shooting it. Never had a quality 22lr until this one. She's a shooting sob with all ammo I've tried in it. Found it at Cabela's about 4 years ago for the grand sum of $800. I was pretty happy with the deal. I love looking at guns too. Kind of burnt myself out the last couple weeks though. Glass bedding model 70's I've recently bought. I also enjoy shooting them as well..
