I have had my eye out for a last ditch rifle, but it has never been on the top of my have to get list.
A friend made me an offer. He had a last ditch T99 and told me he would be willing to tread it for some stock work. He had two Parker Hale rifles in 30-06 that were in some simi fancy stocks. One had been poorly refinished by someone and the other was showing some age.
He said that if I refinished the two stocks, add Limb Saver recoil pads and could make them look like twins, he would give me the T99.
Well I finished up the stocks a few weeks later and brought them to him. He was so happy with the stocks that he threw in a bayonet with the rifle.
Well here is the rifle.
And the Bayonet.
Here are the stocks that I worked on for the trade.
