GeorgeS.280 Ross, 9.5x57 rifles spotted
I was visiting a gun shop, and spotted two right-hand rifles I thought someone here might find interesting (I am a lefty).
One is a .280 Ross in very good condition; I did not examine it very closely, but it looked all original.
The other is a Model 1910 Steyr Mannlicher 9.5x57 (which I believe is a .375 bore), with the butterknife bolt handle. This action was slicker than any other rifle I've tried. This also appeared to be all original.
If interested, send me a PM so as not to clutter up the forum, and I will provide the name of the shop and contact information. You can tell him I told you about it or not, as I gain no benefit from the sale.
Thanks,
George
