Good Gun Deals This Week

Cabela’s has adopted a policy of listing the rifle using the name on the receiver regardless even if there are the custom maker’s marks on the rifle.

I bought a Winchester Model 70 .416 Rem from an online Cabela’s listing. The rifle had unusually nice wood and non-standard sights, easily worth the few hundred they asked for over others on gunbroker. Turns out it was a full custom build by a well respected smith with his logo on the barrel. When picking it up, I asked the guy at the counter why they had not listed it as a custom and he explained the policy.

Sounds like a way to get a custom rifle at dollars for dimes....quarters, anyway. As long as it is a desirable caliber and not some unknown wildcat.

Yes it is.
