Holy Smokes, that's a service grade??????
How come every time I go to the store, if the have service grades, the wood looks like it was used for boat oars in a tar lake.

Nice and congrats

THAT is a nice one - whew with the exception of what looks to be a little browning on the front handguard front ferrel, I'd say that thing looks to be almost new!

Congrats and a half - very nice rifle. Hopefully she shoots half as good as she looks.

First, welcome to the forum.
That's a beautiful rifle you received. Congrats. You may have received one of the Greek AF rifles that everyone has been talking about. From all reports they are very nice. Let us know how she shoots!!
