We have the same rifle in our Wal Mart, same caliber, same price. Looks pretty good to me, would buy it for my son if I had the extra money after Christmas. I don't think you'll be disappointed if it appeals to you, Mike.

Nice looking outfit but have never owned one so cannot vouch for quality.They also come in 30-06.
My understanding is they were manafactured specifically for Wal-Mart.

Like Mike above, I've seen that same rifle in the local Wal-Mart here.

Actually thought about it myself....

Thanks, I appreciate the comments...

Wal Mart must get several different special-run rifles. They also carry a Ruger 10/22 with a longer barrel, cut checkering stock with a rubber butt plate and no barrel band. Not that they ever seem to have much variety in their little gun case, but interesting at times.

I saw what i think you are talking about in the gun shop.The fellow said they were a special run and only came in the 30/06 and 270,with the 30/06 you got lep.rings but the 270 didn't come with them,were priced a little over $400 bucks,The ones they had had a cameo stock and no sights,really looked nice.Don't know if it is the same one or not though said he had not seen any with a laminated stock.

Does the "LS" stand for laminate stock or laminate stainless? If it's a stainless laminate, I'd jump on it!

I'd say Laminated Stock, as the one I saw was a laminated stock & blued metal.

Yep, if it was laminated and stainless, I'd be writing about the one I already bought at $429!
