I don't want to scratch it up, I don't want to mount a scope on it and I want to hunt with a stainless gun and 777 so I have a little more time between shooting and cleaning. They are very nice traditional guns tho and I enjoy shooting it about once a year and looking at it most every day.
Hey Jenks,
I just looked...hers says AZ which I'm going to assume was made after yours was but I have no idea when. She bought it from a friend I used to work with back in '91 before we were married. He told us it had less than 20 rounds through it and it was in excellent condition inside and out. She got the rifle, a partial pound of Pyro P, a darn near full box of .530 roundballs, a nice leather possibles bag and all of the necessary shooting accessories for $100!!!
