This is my newest old rifle. It is a 1991 vintage, it took me 4 years to find a used one in the states.

.22lr caliber, I will get you some weight info this weekend.

This is very odd....

Someone started this thread, I replied last week, followed up last night and now the original post is gone and it looks like I started the thread.

Making tinfoil hats now.

Sorry for the confusion.

The OP changed his post to include some "strange" IP addresses, so I deleted him.

I've now locked the thread.
