Post by VKT1941 »

I finally got were I could collect again and decided to pick out a rifle I ended up choosing this. My wife and I went to the Raleigh gun show and had a blast. Well that's enough talking i'm just happy to be back! Here's the link the photos are to large for the forum. https://www.flickr.com/gp/153180347@N06/X9XC8z

The boss looks "Thrilled" to be in that photo.
Damn, I'll bet that's going to leave a mark! Probably hurt too!

I know the gentleman you purchased that from. Class act. Great rifle. I like the panshin front sight.

I know what you mean. I picked up a rifle like yours for $150 and paid $350 for the Panshin bayonet. I like to think it was worth it.
