commando450-thanks for the comments-the M17 is, however, well used with many stock repairs-here in Australia the P14/M17 rifles were popular with service rifle clubs as they are very accurate with a strong action and used to be available in large numbers but as with most things are getting rare in good condition.

So the bore is still nice?

Cheers from across the big pond,BTW !!

No problems, just didn't want to misrepresent the old girl-I'm sure many of the other members would have better examples in their collections but she has character as well as being amongst the last made. I don't really shoot much and haven't shot this one but the bore is still fairly usable.
