Scout?

Post by tokarev » Sat Mar 13, 2004 4:20 pm

Anybody here have/shot/handled one of those little Springfield? Scout rifles. I'm talking about the .22/.410 survival rifles that was originally made for the Air Force.





Are the new versions any good. I guess that technically the new ones don't qualify as milsurps, they are more like replicas of the originals.





I was looking at one today in the local shop and it was kinda calling to me, but I can't bring myself to find a real want/need for it other than it's kinda neat looking. Looked handy with the matching factory scope with see-through mounts. Actually shouldered right without having to crane my head to see the sights.





Are any of the originals out there? What are they worth? This one was $200 with the scope and maybe I should buy accessories for my milsurp darlings with that instead ;-)





Decisions, decisions
