WINCHESTER model 88 in .284 win.
« on: August 13, 2015, 03:55:56 AM »
Traded straight across,my 1960  RUGER .44MAG. unaltered  old model SBH  for my old bosses  1970
.284 in a model88 Winchester.    He  purchased it brand new. ran about  50 rounds thru it.... it came with 2  sets of dies.2 1/2 boxes of factory ammo......  the 44 was also brand new.... mabe 150-200 rounds thru it.....have a safe full of handguns but spend most of my time buying and shooting  RUSKIE  SKS refurbs....... Ihe 88 will make a fine open timber round......I just sold the .44s  companion to my grandson.....a 1962  NEW 44mag. carbine....... I needed the money for MORE SKS rifles.....lol

Nice trade!   I like lever guns, especially Winchesters but all I have is a early 90s Marlin 30/30. 
      
1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms... It doesn't matter how many Lenins you get out on the street begging for them to be taken.

Good deal pops!  How has the Russian SKS market been up there lately?  I was up in rural Newfoundland the past couple weeks and there wasn't a single one to be seen!  cry1
