At the show today I saw a Model 30 express, looked to be in very good original shape, guy only wanted 395 for it. It had a rear peep/aperture sight with windage and elevation adjustment. But I couldn't make out the markings on it. Looked original what sight would this have been, if it is original? Was 395 a good deal for it?

I'd have walked out of there with the 30 Express AND the mauser. I'm sure some will say otherwise but, hey, diff'rent strokes.  Aut vincere aut mori | |||

Probably was a Lyman 48 and $395 probably was a very good price. NRA Life Member, Band of Bubbas Charter Member, PGCA, DRSS. Shoot & hunt with vintage classics. | |||

If I had the money I would have bought them both. I wondered if it were a Lyman 48 and were worth getting at that price. BUT then gotta think about the cost of converting it to something I want. don't need another 06. damn I wish I had more money.

Mauser? Both? Am I missing something? All I see is a question about one rifle! An old man sleeps with his conscience, a young man sleeps with his dreams. | |||

The asking price on the last one that I saw (and I have seen very few ) at a local show was $700. I'd say $395 was a very good price. | |||

30L Express' came with Lyman and the 30R came with Redfield receiver sights. If it had any kind of condition it was a great price. Mines a .35 Rem, been looking for a 30.06. | |||
