I have looked at a rifle that could be for sale, I just need to make an offer.
A concentric circle 6.6mm bolt action long rifle.
I lost my paper upon which I had recorded markings that would indicate the manufacturing arsenal, serial number and series number.
There appeared to be a cleaning rod in the front of the stock.
The stock was not cracked, but had a few dings in it.
There was an attached bayonet, which he said was likely not original.
There was no gouged out or overstamped remarks on the receiver.
The bolt is there.
It has been sitting in a closet for about 30 years.
If: The barrel is rifled, the bore cleans up and looks ok ,the actions of firing-feeding-extraction-safety all function, etc.,
Is $150.00 or $200.00 a reasonable offer for what I have described?
What else should be noted about such a surplus rifle?
Could I make a snap-cap for function testing?
