Default A Really Nice .50 Pedersoli "Dixie Cub" - SOLD (You missed a good'un!)

I bought this fine little .50 caliber last month as part of a package deal that included a .32 caliber I really wanted (needed?). My plans were to sell it immediately. But it was so nice I've had a hard time pulling the trigger. Now it's got to go to finance another project.

It weighs in at an easy carrying 6 & 1/2 pounds. Total length is 44 inches, with a 28" barrel. You can walk all day with this one.

The length of pull is 13 & 1/4", perfect for a small framed person or heavy winter clothes.

The pictures tell you everything else you need to know except the price, which is $425 shipped to your door.












The stock is blemish free except for one spot. The previous owner evidently tapped in the barrel pins in one spot with a hammer. I got as good of a close-up of that area as I could.




The bore is pristine and so shiny it was hard to get a really good picture. So I took one with a white light and one with a green light. Those "spots" you see in the picture are not pits, and not visible to the naked eye (probably dust).




How does it shoot?

Here’s a report on my one and only range session with it.

YOU REALLY NEED THIS GUN! (And I really need your cash.)

a good conical shooter with that 1:34 twist. When it goes on sale for $299.99 I would be interested.

You really need this one Chet. It's the perfect size for those young`uns of yours.

I could ship it to you to play with. After you check it out you can either send me $400, or return it at your expense. Price isn't going below that. It's just too nice, and doesn't take up a lot or room in the closet.

Hey guys, Christmas is coming. This one would make a fine gift for any young ML enthusiast, or anyone who would like a short light easy carrying rifle.

(And I need your cash for my own Christmas shopping.)

It's sitting over in the corner just waiting for you to pull the trigger rafsob. Just this evening I'm pretty sure I heard it mumble "I want to go live with Rafsob".

Semi, you're right, Christmas is coming. It sure would be nice if the big brown truck would deliver it nicely wrapped as a gift...
