Thank You! And... I know those guys pretty well. They didn't insert the magazine into the rifle, but did pull everything out the way that they had gotten it in the store. Regarding the price, I...
Thank you! I feel a lot better about putting down so much money now. Many thanks!
Thank you! I felt that this had to be legitimate. I am not going to worry about the mismatch, I was more worried about fakes. This rifle has a lot of character, and I feel fortunate to have gotten...
