Wow! Half price for a .505 Gibbs even if it has some issues that was a great price. Hopefully everything is “on the level”
 
I have purchased rifles from Jeff in the past and he is a great guy, purchase with confidence.
I have seen this .505 Gibbs rifle in person and it’s better than pictures depict.
I’m sure if you call or PM Jeff he would fill you in on the build.
Great Buy rhoward252!!

This same gun had been sold to Krish in June? Did he not end up taking it? @krish
When my FFL received it , the action had import marks, no serial number, some info on action looked like rubbed of with wheel buffer or grinder. So my FFL said it could be used in US. BUT can not purchase a serial number on it till he thoroughly resurch the gun. Which would have been expensive. So my ffl returned the gun at my cost to the seller given ffl.
Seller might have legalized it with serial number.

Look like a cheap entry into a sore shoulder!

Rifle looked fine as posted. Very likable. OP bought the rifled action from the mentioned dealer and custom stocked it. Very nice and cooperative to deal with. It is my quirk I had to send it back.

No I meant a cheap entry into the 500 club.

Some older actions were not serialized as they were not required to. But if a action is imported then it requires a serial number. That is what my issue was.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!
