rifle sighting
While travelling thru Great Falls last saturday I went into Scheels to kill time. They have a Marlin 1893 rifle, Half round half octagon barrel. 30-30, marked for smokeless. It appears all original, no blueing left. This rifle was a long time user. Crack in the front of the fore stock about an inch long and a chip missing from the butt stock adjacent to the upper tang, right side. Wood is shrunk away from the toe. Ser # 209xxx. They are asking $649.

I wasn't interested in it for myself. I was putting the word out for them that needs more projects. I've got more stuff left uncompleted around here than I care to think about!
