I am rusty. That must mean I need to watch that movie again. It has only been about 10 years since I have seen it.

"Frag-ile" in a bad Italian accent, folowed by "You'll shoot your eye out kid".
There definitely is some potential in that rifle, if I it was a decade ago I'd build either a .358 Norma or .375 H&H. I have a 1917 Winchester that's a .300 H&H, I bought it in a fairly rough condition as well. I didn't do much to it except re-stock it, added a Timney, and threw a scope on it. It already had the belly taken out, changed to COO, and rechambered to .300 H&H with the feed rails worked.

I can't believe someone hasn't asked the customary questions:
What is the round count? How does it shoot? How much does it weight? Trade for something worth 1/10 of your asking price?
LOL.....free bump for something you don't see everyday.

I can run it through my bead blaster and strip all the bluing off of the barrel for a buyer, no charge. Bump

This could be made into a nice hunting rifle if you were willing to make that lamp shade into a bandolier for it!!

I wish every seller would take a lesson from this man's photography...THIS is how you represent a rifle. That picture of the throat gives a buyer 100% confidence. Well done, sir.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

This little gem here that an older gentleman invented and gave me one slides in most receivers after you take the bolt out and you can look at the throat and most of the bore magnified slightly, brass tube with a magnifier in the end of it.
