Winchester International Army Match rifle, M-70, RH, LA with SA port, clip slotted, factory bedding, adjustable trigger from top, really great rifle, I believe only around 176 were made from the Winchester Custom shop, $1900.00

Full disclosure;
I found this rifle with no bolt, after much research I found the correct bolt, no question about it, after talking to other owners none of there’s bolts were numbered, my go gauge doesn’t close but new brass does chamber with some force, but not right, so it was going to go to a competent gunsmith and have them take care of the headspace, not sure if they take it off the bolt face or the back of the lugs or split the difference or the chamber not certain I was gonna leave it up to them, but instead, I’m leaving it as is for the new owner to send it to their Smith that they’re comfortable with, I am a Winchester guy and all my years of shooting. I’ve never come across one of these so for me it was a keeper, but as I get up in those years, you know the old saying there’s not enough room in the coffin to take everything with you so with regret, I’m letting it goimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg
 
Barrel looks super nice, very low count, overall it has all the signs of not being used much at all, this is not your everyday M-70 rifle, awesome action, from the condition of the stock, it was not cased for most of its lifeimage.jpg

Do you think it came with sights from custom shop?
Not sure, the side where a sight would good has no sign of anything being mounted, but most of them I did come across has a Palma and International front sight, which is what I was going to use, I had a International front modified for the 18mm Iris for it, I have a few new Mark 8 rear sights, and some minty International and Palmas too to keep it old school, all the factory Redfield bases I have clear the stock with no problem, the shorter ones clear the bolt release, longer ones should be cut to clear the release just to make life easyimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg
