Many years from now, collectors will be bragging about having an original unaltered Springfield Sporters rifle with original intact inventory aluminum tag. Possibly the latest version of Numrich will have reproduction tags. Consecutive serial numbered tags??? Wow, the possibilities.
For the man who has everything...Quote:

And I'll bet it would cost as much as the rifle. Still, you are right it would go nice with it for display.Quote:
