Default Newest additions to gun collection.

The first is a Remington 700 .243 I was told it was a classic delux but after doing some research I found it to more likely be a custom. It has heavy floral engraving on the receiver and floorplate... The second is a Benelli Nova 12 GA... If anyone has a better ID on the 700 on what grade it is or anything like that please let me know, Thanks...

Here is the engraved floorplate. It has a ram engraved on it.

And the Nova...

It looks to be a 700 BDL.

It isn't a classic it has the wrong stock on it for a classic . I would have to agree it looks like a BDL .

Remington confirmed it through the serial number for me this morning. Model 700 BDL Custom Deluxe 1997 Dont know what all that means for sure but it is what they told me on the phone. My only other Remington product is a 788 which I absolutely love.

The 788 is a fine rifle. I have had many of them. I did have the bolt handle come off a 788 in 308. However for the price they sold for new, they were hard to beat.
