If someone insists on that price, let them go out and find one for that. It can't be done.

    These rifles shoot decently. I have never owned one but have had occasion to fire them at the range. Ask for a price reduction to about $225 and keep this odd bit of very nice 60's "nostalgia." They really are sort of a niche rifle for collectors, very much like the Gibbs' rifles shown above.

    And, keep on the lookout for a No. 5. They will start considerably higher though.
    I hate to burst your theory but I paid $100 two weeks ago.

    I was missing the sights on mine too. It was drilled and tapped for a Williams scope mount. I found one and rings on Ebay for less than $20. I want to find a vintage Weaver or Lyman scope now.

    I would love to find the correct iron sights though. It's a sweet handling carbine.
