That is a nice rifle. I could find a place for it in the safe.
I'm surprised that it only reached $500. at auction.

What's the typical going rate for an Israeli FN Mauser?

I like the recticle on that scope, I don't know if you can buy one like that, what's it called.

Which auction was this??
Could it be the one that all the items seem to mysteriously disapear just before the auction closes??

That's pretty nice, alright! It's interesting how they solved the problem of the safety being hard to get at.

I'll bet the optics are first rate - I've never seen anything from Wild that wasn't. The eye relief has me scratching my head though; the scope seems to be a long ways back.

How does it shoot?
