Re: The Gun Room
So my kid texts me saying he has a line on some Winchesters in Alaska.
A pre 64 model 70 super grade in 270 with a Lyman Alaskan. 1600
A 71 deluxe for 2k.
An 1895 in 35wcf for 2200
I should have some pics in a while. Don't sound bad if they are straight and original. Kid is hot for the 71.

I figure old shot out 38-55s and 32-40s were what was mostly returned for this treatment during the depression.
I've actually seen several of these up here. Almost all are in 32 Special. I'm sure there was a surplus of those barrels.

I find that in recent years as long as you use good quality components, most any thrown together AR will be a reliable and accurate rifle.
The AR15 has come farther in the last 15 years than in all the years before. Twenty years ago I laughed at them, now I trust them as much as anything.
