Gloss SB2
« on: January 02, 2008, 03:43:20 AM »
I ran into another interesting handi rifle at a gun shop yesterday.  It was a 243 with a superlight barrel, and a youth synthetic stock.   The strange part was receiver.  It was like a black mirror.  It had a better gloss finish than the scope that sat on top of it.  Every receiver I have seen is either a brushed black finish or a multi colored blued finish. 
It had a NR serial number, so its not that old.
I have never seen this before and Im wondering if it is a rare production.

My 45-70 has a highly polished receiver also. I wish they had given the barrel the same treatment.
