For Sale Win 70 375H&H & Dakota 97 Deluxe 300 Win Mag

[nestorm]

I inherited a couple of rifles from my father. He was a big game hunter who went all over. I am, however, not a big game hunter; I collect military surplus and revolvers. I've tried listing these guns on Texas Gun Trader, but we don't exactly have game out here that requires a round this size. I was told this place might afford more interest in his rifles, so here I am. I know I don't exactly have a reputation here, but I've bought and sold on TGT for years now, and that ought to be reflected in my profile there. I know this is a national board, so I'd be willing to ship through an FFL, but if you're in Texas I'd much prefer to meet face to face.

I believe my prices are low for these rifles, just based on what they were insured for. Given that they're used and not everyone hunts big game, I figured I'd take the insurance cost and cut it by about 35-40%. Anyway, here are the links to the guns:

I’ll take the M70. PM sent.

That Dakota is beautiful. I am sure it will go quickly. GLWS.

Great guns! Wish I would've been quicker seeing that M70!

 

[Mtn_Infantry]

GLWS beautiful guns.

You could also try a few shops in TX like McBride's, Sportsman's Finest, Dury's, or Collectors Firearms that tend to have the African stuff on hand. Collector's generally has a lot of MilSurp and revolvers as well.

Would help your sale,sell,sail,cell…if you take a couple new pics with your phone with a piece of paper, dated today and username in the pic next to the rifle as good faith you actually have these in your possession. Since you are new to the site.

Maybe I just can't see it, but does the Model 70 have a rear sight?

I, too, have a barrel question. It’s either a factory Classic SM with an upgraded front sight or it’s carrying an aftermarket barrel. I would love to see the barrel markings.

It's a rear peep sight. I can include several other peep sights I found in a box he had if interested.

Thank you. It’s an aftermarket barrel - perhaps a conversion. A call to Browning with the serial number would settle what it was originally. Beautiful rifle.

I'll take the Dakota...Thanks Chris

I picked up the M70 from the OP. It was exactly as described and very straight forward dealing with him. I’d gladly deal with him again.

Gave the rifle a cleaning and lube, and could not be happier with it. Whoever built it appears to have known what they were doing. It weighs 8 1/4 pounds.

Bottom line, the OP is good to go. I have zero connection to him.

 

[nestorm]

The M70 has indeed been sold. Good deal. The kahless optic is still available.

 

[nestorm]

The Dakota has been sold with its optic.

I'll Take the Kahles as well...
