    The fit and finish on these rifles is nothing short of amazing. Let us know how she preforms.

    You say that with every rifle.

    In any case, any of the most modern three that take the modern ammo are great shooters. I shot better with my K11 than my K31icon. I would expect to do better with the 1911 but I haven't taken it to the range yet.

    Busted!
    Truth is I can't seem to pass anything up if the price is right regardless of its place on my flexiable list. I only wish my intrest and disposable income had peaked when Shot Gun News was full of milsurps of all descriptions (not so long ago) .The picking seems to be a bit thin here . See what shows up next week end.

    I believe mine was made in 1958, best I can tell. The bore & outside finish were 100%, all I did was strip & refinish stock with 4 coats of T.O. & 2 coats Johnson's hard paste wax. You will really enjoy this rifle!
