the price above is less than i expected for a new one. Bass Pro is $529. Where is this gun offered and...one thing the description does not say is that it is tapped/drilled for mounting a scope. Do they all come ready for scopes? i would think so but am surprised it doesn't say so, as some of their other models state.

still seeking more input on value too. Based on the above, perhaps used with the scope, rings at $325 or is that too low?
