Hot Dang!

That's easily one of the best yet from the recent albanian imports and all of the early batches too.

Lucky dog.

Now I'm tempted to order another one. Not sure my luck would hold for a second go around. :)

There's not much room left  to find another rifle of this quality, let alone something better.

But your luck certainly seems to be at or near its zenith

Wow. Just...wow.

You really lucked out on this one. That has to be one of the nicest specimens I've seen since they became available. Your son is one lucky guy!

Heps,, you scored really good. Did Classic advertise these as hand select and all matching for 319.00 ? Or was the all matching a crap shoot and you lucked out ? That thing is nice compared to my AIM 299.00 with only all metal matching. I got smoked  chuckles1 chuckles1

I paid $319.00 with $25.00 extra for hand select /matching numbers.
