I bought me a number one in 7 x57 yesterday !
It came with a 3x9 vxII and 100 rounds factory ammo and 40 once fired brass!
I am very happy about it.

I have an RSI also. In 7x57 and a 45/70 I ain’t sure what model that on is.
I like number ones.

I've always been intrigued with how many nice weapons end up in Pawn Shops out that way.
Here not so much.

"Walking out" sounded like a wise decision to me!

I have a #3 in 25-35 and it's so much fun to shoot, I could see having a 22 Hornet in one also.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

If you don't go back, I wouldn't mind knowing the name of that pawn shop. I am in the market for a 22 Hornet and a Ruger #1 in that caliber sure would be nice.
