5-Spot-62-1.jpeg5-spot-2.jpegAs the saying goes: “Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good” held true today.  Walking down the aisle at Reno I saw a table full of 1890 rifles… and a pre-war 62.  I rolled the 62 over and there was the “5 Spot”… I couldn’t leave it behind.  It’s in nice condition… and the bore is exceptional.

Ben; You didn’t happen to see a “stainless” barrel on that table of 1890’s. I’m still looking.
