This appears to be a good buy if as advertised. It’s located about two hours from my residence. I’m going to take a ride and see what this shop is all about. Any comments as to it’s condition and originality?

Len-

May be worth a road trip. I called them once and wasn’t able to learn much from the person I spoke with. They seem to have some interesting guns, would like an opportunity to spend some time in their shop. No telling what you might find.

The two pictures of the rifle do not show enough detail to adequately assess it. That stated, it does appear to be original. Please jot down the serial number when you look at the rifle so that I can add it to the research survey.
