1961 Mannlicher-Schoenauer rifle, half-stock, single trigger, 30-06 cal. Gun is dated �65� on barrel, so that is the year. This is the late version MCA gun with tang safety. Action is butter smooth! Someone decided to remove the sights entirely, so they were turned off, then smoothed in that area only, and blued. 22� to boltface (as opposed to the 24� of my 1950 & 1952 half-stocks) No idea why! When I saw this, I thought it was just perfect for either reboring to 35 Whelen or rebarreling to 25-06 or 280 AI, but I have too many projects as it is. So, rather than leave this sitting in the cabinet till goodness knows when, I thunked that maybe someone here would want it more. Gun has no rust and is super-smooth. Barrel/bore appear to be very good, but could use a good cleaning. Sling swivels are there, barrel is floated, and the pad is in very good shape. The bases alone are $175-200!!! A word about that barrel length. This is the first 61 MCA half-stock gun I have seen, so I am not sure if some length was cut off the barrel, but darn if this thing doesn�t balance RIGHT! It is actually a bit handier than my other 24� guns, and darn near as nice as my Fullstock guns! The stock is free of cracks, but as you can see has been hunted with pretty good. There are some dents on there that are not too bad, but would require a good steam to remove. Checkering is still very good and sharp.

Only things I might be interested in trading for is a .270 cal (only) Higgins model 50, or possibly a Century Golani Sporter, maybe a Krico full stock in .222, or some other fullstock gun, but that is it. Anyway, look it over, and if you like then doe the I�LL TAKE IT thing, and we go from there, OK?
