I have a US Model 1917 Rifle that is begging for restoration.
It is a Winchester Receiver, 1918 dated barrel and Bolt.
The front sight is all Winchester as well as part of the rear sight.
I have not completley taken it apart but most other parts are Eddystone and a few od the more rare Remington.
Barrel has a nice clean bore and the overall finish is still pretty good, I'd say 85% or more? I am not a good judge of such things.
The stock has been nicely sporterized for hunting use, but as a collector has been ruined. I am sure a Winchester stock could be found with some effort. Along with the missing bands and other missing metal parts.
But most importantly nothing has been altered that cannot be replaced. NO shortened barrek, scope mount holes etc.
I will ship to legal purchaser for $400.00 shipping included.
Allow 24hr insp with actual shipping cost deducted from refund if returned.
Thanks and feel free to call me at 724-235-1140
