Mounting a scope on a 30-30

[Ganderite]

I Put a WILLIAMS receiver sight on mine (peep sight). For under 50 yards it is better than a scope. Rifle is already drilled and tapped for the sight.

personally i would forget about it- it's worth more intact rather than DRILLED and tapped for a scope- get yourself a modern rifle that is already drilled and tapped

A department store .30-30 is a high-value collector's item?

A department store .30-30 is a high-value collector's item?

believe it or not, it CAN be- any off- brand ( not winchester, remmy, marlin, etc) to the right collector- i know there's a following for EATON'S and HBC( stamped hbc- not hudson's bay company) - it depends on how many of that were produced for that store and what shape it's in
that falls under canadiana collectors and not gun collectors

Does it really matter?
