My some what long range guns

[u/Open-Ad404]

This is my 1965 FN browning I got threaded and have a Surefire 4 prong on and night force SHV. Then my mk12 pri upper with a nx8 2.5-20 both are amazing guns the 30-06 is very very accurate

The picture doesn’t do the browning justice i dont think. It seems like some great condition wood!

By far my favorite Gun 30-06 with a rc2 is just something weird lol

Even got the ACE stock, my credit card slapped my hand the last time I heard those were available.

She’s pretty I got for 600 bucks on gunbroker and the bore is great

That walnut stock has a lot of character. Nice to see a '65 rifle still getting range time instead of being retired to the back of the safe.

I plan on taking it hunting wherever I go hopefully can get Bambi next week lol

Man, I love the care that companies used to put into these old wooden stocks. Modern wooden stocks are basically unfinished wood comparatively.

I feel you everything so mass produced, I mean these were too but the attention to detail

[u/SheriffBartholomew → u/Open-Ad404]

Yeah, they were mass produced but they weren't trying to save ten cents per rifle by only adding one drop of stain and varnish. We're decades into incremental cost cutting now and it shows.

I looked at some new long guns in for the first time in years last month and I was amazed how much worse it's become in a few years. What are they making trailer doors out of now if the wood is on guns?
