Easter Egg from the South Store

[Dan Wilson]

I picked up a 5.8 SA Service grade at the south store yesterday, nothing special including the ho hum late war/post war op rod - until ten minutes ago when I unstocked the critter.

Apparently I picked up a square cut Winchester op rod on my service grade, never seen one of these beasties before.

A squard cut WRA late op rod is always difficult to find even with the relief cut it is still worth alot to the Win 13 collector.

Here is a photo of a rev 0 op rod which is also hard to locate

Yep that's a really sweet op rod, actually the rev 0 op rod is the one I keep looking for when I buy a rifle but no joy so far

Another op rod to look for but difficult to find

[Calif-Steve]

Yes, it is the rather rare Win 13 op rod. Very nice Easter Egg.

Looks like mine.

Unfortunately mine has a relief cut, I bet yours has not....

My revision 0 top marked is machined just a little different on top and without relief cut.


Rev 2 are also difficult to locate with a very short window of time

I know where a cut -2 is but I can't get to it....

No revision 2 here but I do have a revision 1. I'm sure you have at least one of those as well.

I have to find a photo, mine has an original keystone spring
