For Sale.
Slightly used, but never abused Ruger No 1 barrelled action in the legendary 9.3x74r caliber.
The only flaw I can find is it appears to have endured some rather long firing sessions which may or may not have heated up the barrel a bit. However, rifling still seems sharp and crisp.
The trigger and action components operate very smoothly, other than a slight "gritty" sensation when opening the lever. (Could just need a good oiling).
It appears to have had a "rust bluing" or "Color Case Hardening" process done to it, but Doug Turnbull declined to varify the origin of this finely executed finish.
Finally, the barrel has a custom "bend" to it. We're guessing this is for gaining a "lead" on running game. You just have to make sure the game is running to your left.
Overall, I would rate this fine barrelled action as at least an NRA A+++ rating. This is a solid, custom, take it to Africa and have money left over for the second Buffalo, kind of rifle. We know of no hotter item on the market.
Buy with confidence.
