TC1Vapodog, You almost hit the nail on the head.
Yesterday I got the quarterly rag from Dakota. They are selling "special" Model 10 and Model 76 dakota's in .30-06's to celebrate it's 100th birthday. only 101 of each will be made. At only $8200.00 for the model 10 and $9000.00 for the M76 I think it's a steal!

HA!
(sarcasm) Here's the real kicker though, for an additional $1100.00 you can get a $800 Swarovski AV scope with the same serial# as the rifle! Man what a bargan!
Ruger may do something too, but you were spot on about the "Commemorative rifles"

vapodogI have no crystal ball but if I was remugerchesterage I'd be making special runs of commoratives in .30-06.
The Dakota thing just seems like a typical Dakota rip off. Way-ta-%&@$ overpriced. And a scope with the same number?
Boy....that'll sell like hot cakes!!!!

Super Bon BonYOu boys ain't seen Big G's commemorative yet?
Take a look under their Special Run banner on their website (under firearms). Unless you like maple (and I don't), you'll find it butt-a$$ed ugly (like I do).

vapodogIt's been posted here.....and it's a big disappointment from Remington.
I actually expect them to recall their classic for this year......one never knows.
