Century Arms sold a lot of guns through Roses

The scoped '09 Argentine arrived at my FFL today and I got a chance to look at it before it went into his safe for the 10 day "cooling off" period.
In great condition, very nice bolt turn down and stock cut out for the bolt handle, Bore is sharp and shiny, bluing is excellent. Everything matches down to the cleaning rod.
I hate to say it, but it looks like someone took an "unissued" 09 Argentine and drilled and tapped it.
Better pics when it gets out of jail.
I picked up my new Argentine drilled an tapped rifle the other day from my FFL. It is in outstanding condition...both wood and metal and the bore is also outstanding.

I finally got a scope mounted on my Argentine Mauser. I ended up needing some higher rings for the scope that I mounted.
I'm hoping to get to the range next week and shoot it.

It looks like this one will keep up with the Persian.
I shot the Argentine at the vintage military rifle silhouette match for the first time last Saturday. It did OK--31/40. I need to shoot it a little more and possibly refine the load.
