24/47 sniper?

Post by lmc1016 » Tue Nov 29, 2005 10:22 pm

this rifle came from SOG last year with the receiver D/T with an odd pattern. assumed it was a sniper, but have never heard or seen of a 24/47 sniper. couldn't decide what to do with price of Zrac mounts and the availability being scarce. so I did the unforgivable, and had my gunsmith "fix it", leupold mount and rings. it already had the military bent bolt, so he did a nice reverse bend. i put a BEC Euro 3-9x42 with target knobs and a #8 reticle. i believe that if anyone had this setup available, it would have been put into service. here are a few pics and it will shoot. look close at the target.

don't mind the US sling:
