Who's saying my rifle doesn't exist?
"There is no such beast as a P17"
Oh yes there is! I bought one. Over here you get nothing else!
And when was the last time anyone referred to the "U.S. Model of 1917", as stamped on the P17 :lol:receivers?:madsmile:
"Love the fiddleback walnut in the Long Lee wood!" :cheers:
Me too, even if those irritated by "P17" ought to protest against the non-official designation "Long Lee".
I can nit-pick with the best of them, if it is appropriate in cases of doubtful authenticity. Otherwise, I too prefer to enjoy the rifles.
So, dances with gophers - which is the best shooter?
