Yes its a solid gun. Even came with the original manual from 1979. Bore is pristine with easily under 100 rounds.

dwheelsYou even got some figure in the wood. I have two older model 700's and one new one. I like both the older ones better. I think quality has gone down with new manufacturing practices as well as attention to detail, fit, and finish.
