...of the Springfield 03.
The president of the CU of which I was on the board moonlighted in a high end long gun "boutique".
Some guy traded it in on some some super expensive hunting rifle and my pal got it for me on what they gave in trade. I used to borrow a scope for qualifications and contests. Don't have my own.
Then, he got me into that target range. (Closed because that area of the county exploded with new home building.)
I never looked for another.
I probably should sell the thing through a licensed broker.
