The metal looks like it's in mint shape but the stock on the other hand needs some TLC. Defeantly need to get either a new stock or a steamer to remove the dent's on it.
Post back resualt's once the guru himself "PING'S" it out for ya

 

[driller212]

[driller212]

yea, im not really sure how to tell if it has "been in the war" but that would be cool to know if i could know.

 

[M14Doctor]

Welcome to the club. Very nice shooter that you have there.

 

[wildphil24]

Congratulations!

Can I ask how much you paid for?

 

[Claven2]

I see the bbl is SA, but what make is the gun?

 

[driller212]

umm it was a great deal, i kept my eye on the EE alot and i got lucky with it. it was 500 dollars. the make of the receiver is springfield armory, and it also says "US rifle" at the top.

Congrats ! These are contagious you know .....

 

[angrysoldier]

nice rifle, but please dont alter it. those dents to me on the stock are personialty! pretty rifle though.

 

[daveg01]

Very nice. The same rifle is on my must have list as well. Hopefully one day.

 

[driller212]

so worth it guys, took it out shooting today, the trigger is soo crisp, the iron sights are the best ive ever used, very accurate, and believe it or not there isnt much kick, i was using 165 grain bullets and was very surprised!!!

I think I have fallen in love...

 

[coldcashandcolderhearts]

165 grain hand loads or commercial?

 

[driller212]

commercial for now, i get to use a friends reloading equipment as soon as i get my dies in the mail
