Fritz Posted November 15, 2015 Share #1 Posted November 15, 2015 Well, wasn't the best gun show but did pick this up from a gent I met a couple months ago, he got it right from a navy Seabee, totally unmessed with rifle and is exactly the way you want to find them, virtually no wear to it just storage age.
