 Had one in the past.Interesting little rifle to shoot.  

I owned one many years ago that I shot. I have one now I bought a few months back, and have yet to shoot it. I have lots of shorts and longs. Big Larry

First one I’ve seen  not refinished in some time. Asking price is high for condition in my opinion,  but the unmolested ones are rare.  

Vince. Where have you been? The prices on these little rifles far exceed those of even M52’s. They are super collectible and seldom found in any condition. I would guess a mint one would bring near $5,000. Mint ones do not exist as a general rule. The price on this one is relativily cheap, and if I didn’t have one already, I would buy it. It may not look like much, but the stock appears to be sound and not cracked as most are. Of course the bore is shot out. Most, including mine, have bad bores. If I hadn’t committed all my working capitol on a super S&W M25-5, I would be a player. Cannot have too many of these super little rifles.   Big Larry
