My local gunstore has a used one in 30-06 for $160. The bore looks good, has a Burris scope and a sling. It looks, feel, works like a ....Savage! Is it a Savage just on a different clothing? I thought about getting a Yugo SKS as a drag around the woods rifle, but this one seems to be a better deal if it would shoot like a Savage (meaning, great accuracy out of the box). Any info? Thanks in advance!

I did a search on Westpoint on google....
:eek:He and James Earney, 23, armed themselves with a .45-caliber Ruger pistol, a 9mm Westpoint rifle and an assault rifle as a black car pulled into the drive and rammed the garage door, http://www.ruralnorthwest.com/kootenai/newsarch/010715.htm

http://www.osa.state.mn.us/reports/gid/1999/forfeit/table4.pdf this site mentions a "Westpoint-Savage 12 guage double-barrel shotgun" also linked to criminal activity. :p

AZrickD,
Thanks for the effort! :) Maybe that's the reason why they are not popular. I looked at it again today, I'm more convinced now that its a Savage clone. If I have enough money next month and its still there I might get it. Thanks again!

Chris,
I'll be home at around 1800 thur. or Fri, I'll give you a call! That baby needs some good spank... I mean break-in (wrong topic :D).
