Gun Show Tomorrow (pic added)
« on: December 04, 2009, 09:22:05 AM »
I'm taking 2 Model 700s and my CZ452 to try and work out a swap for a Model 39 and/or a 336 in .35 Remington.

I bought a pre-CBS .444 for $163.00 out the door.  Now I just have to strip the camo paint off of it.

I used some acetone to remove the paint just on the receiver and the bluing looks great underneath.  It was made in 1980.  The trigger pull & action are very smooth & light.  Not the prettiest barrel I've ever looked through but I'll bet it will clean up great with a little elbow grease.

I'll take some pics before I remove anymore paint.  The foreend has split at some point and the guy repaired it with screws and Plasticwood.  I may try to save it or I may replace it. I saw a Japanese Simmons 1-4X20 for $30.00.  I wanted it real bad but I'm on restriction already;)
