ElKabongGrail pickup at the gun show...rimfire fans step on in
Always wanted one of these
Had to put some boot with a nice shotgun to get it
Have around 1k in it with trade and cash, can’t find one for any less online
No sights, but plan on scoping it anyway
Just need the USMC marked standard barrel one now
I quit school in elementary because of recess.......too many games

rscalzoMy first gun was a brand new 40-X back in the mid 60's. Price was a little over a hundred . Sorry I sold it.
No Redfield sights?

I think I FIFY,
I have both,
and both shoot way better than I can,
and for a US Gun, that stock is in great shape!!
get a set of Olympics or International's for it (or a Unertl) and go shooting!

David LeeI was looking at a beauty a while back at $1,700.00. The one I did have came from a High School shooting team. A batch of 52s and 40X rifles went to the highest bidder. For a price of $225.00 I brought home the rifle, Palma rear and Olympic front, extra apertures, hand stop, sling and upper arm cuff sling, and shooting jacket and mitt. What a great rifle.

SigJacketSoooooooo nice!

David LeePlease see Redfield Sights on a site called Thea. Most listed there are posted at Ebay. A great assortment of Redfield, Lyman and others. Parts as well. Just saw a Palma in nice shape for 94 bucks. Sometimes NIB can be found but heading up near 400.00. Both your front and rear are listed on Thea for the 40X.

HK AgI hope when you say you plan to scope it that you won’t drill into that receiver. I assume it is drilled for scope blocks for a unertl or comparable scope.
I have passed on so many vintage .22’s because they have been drilled all over the receivers, such a shame.

patwVery neat rifle. I find myself being drawn to .22 lr guns lately. I enjoy shooting other calibers but the 22 is just a fun, little, accurate gun. You can shoot them all day on the cheap and have a great time doing it.
