    It's a really nice looking rifle. What your son doesn't know won't hurt him. Just make sure you clean it after you shoot it and before he sees it. My fingers would be itching to get at that.

    I sure would. If there's any chance the original sight and it's hardware come with it then it's a great deal. I highly doubt the original sight is anywhere to be found though.

    It appears to be an average looking Winchester Pattern 14 with a Parker-Hale rear sight added to it and a matching bolt. That looks to be the PH-5B rear sight. It has the target sling swivel front...
