Yep, sounds like it is yours now. I bought a used Rem 788 in 308 off a guy here locally a few weeks back. He was advertising it in very good shape and perfect working order. I went to look at it and loaded some rounds and it cycled fine. The finish was flawless so I paid the $300 he was asking. Got it home and tore it down for cleaning and closer inspection. The stock had huge splits around the lugs and the bolt catch spring was all rigged up with JB weld and a hand carved piece of pine wood wedged in it. I put it back together without all the rigged up crap and the bolt catch didn't hold the bolt from coming all the way out during cycling. I called him immediately and let him know what I found. His story was that he bought it off a co-worker needing money, shot it twice and put it in his safe. He then decided to sell it for what he gave for it because he already had one in 308. When I told him what I found he sounded pretty shocked over the phone and immediately said he would make it right. Honestly I didn't expect him to do a whole lot since I bought a used gun in a private sale. He met me the next day and gave me my money back and offered to pay all my gas money. I didn't accept the gas money and thanked him for being an honest stand up guy. He has since got his money back from the guy he bought from. The lesson I learned from this is that I won't buy a used gun anymore with out a full on field strip of it before the transaction takes place. Never know what you might find when you get it home. I feel extremely fortunate it turned out the way it did because the guy would have been well within his rights to tell me to take a long walk off of a short pier.

If it is a 9422, I say you got a deal. I have seen 3 of those sell for $650 to $700 here locally in the last month.
