another Rugged #1?

Post by woob614271 »

I was on the dog-and-bone to PVM today, and asked about any #1's he may know about....
Well, he has a 220SwiftAI (with a Varmint forend) on his gun rack that he built for a recently deceased mate. THAT would be some fox/cat/bunny rifle...
Now where to find the munny.....

Missed, very tempting.
From what PVM told me, he built it for a mate who passed away earlier this year; little apparent use, no signs of any load development, and it apparently has a stainless barrel (don't know the twist rate), and a Canjar set trigger. THOSE are rarer than unicorn shit.
Gee, I'm tempted, but if you beat me to it, I'll cry (probably a lot!) but will eventually forgive you...
maybe.....
