I put this on the "yellow" but thought I'd post it here also. I am so unbelievable amazed at how this turned out. Thank you James Whitworth!
I forgot just how smooth and powerful it shot. Like shooting nothing.

Just curious what does it cost to have one of those bad boys redone ??

I spent $190. But that was everything. Complete interior revalve/replacement.Clean up and re-blue the barrel. Redo the stock. Replace the safety and rear site adjuster.For me it was well worth it. Even though it only cost about $45 in the mid 70's.
Just to fix internals from about $69-90 I think.
He sighted it in and even sent me a copy of the original owner's manual.

From the outcome it was $ well spent.
