    If it wasn’t caked in nicotine, I would. I doubt I’ll be able to get the smell out of the sling.
    The scope should clean up fine and is pretty dang clear. A nice find, for sure.

    I had a Husqvarna 1600 show up that was yellow from end to end with nicotine and it cleaned fine. I'd have a good go at it...anyway, good catch.
