I’m pleased to have taken over the custodial duties of this rifle. I don’t believe it was ever used. The metal is in absolutely perfect condition showing no signs of use. Not a hint of use on the bolt travel. The stock is close to perfect with 2 tiny little compression dings. This makes the second pre 64 I own that is actually “younger” than me.Cool

Nice! Only a few years newer than my 52C, mine was made the year I was born. It does indeed look new, doesn’t even show any wear on the edges. Good score!

Congratulations Eric!

That’s a very nice, clean find, and well sought after, in that condition!

Enjoy it! Smile

Redfield International Match— it was then, and still is, an excellent sight.
