Worth $170 shipped?






1966 2A1

"It is a Navy Arms "collector grade". It is matching except for the bolt and mag. No bayonet, tools, etc.

The rifling looks good, does not look dark, frosted, worn out. I shot it a couple times when I first got it and it hit the target. Otherwise it has just sat.

I removed the upper hand guard yesterday and the barrel looks absolutely new. The butt plate may not be the right one, it appears that the screws are definitely not."

Don't know why I like it but I do...shoots .308
How expensive is the ammo? Thanks y'all!

Decent you say its chambered for 308 Joe -- surplus isn't bad in the pricing but I still think you could benefit from loading your own

[SexyRedXterra]

You can send the money to me. I'll do something worthwhile with the money

[Shaun]

srx you would have to use the money to buy your first gun

[SexyRedXterra]

not a prob, I wanna handgun when I turn 21

Nice rifle, Joe! I'd jump on it. Gorgeous wood too - that's by far the nicest Ishy I've seen. I may be wrong, but I was under the impression that all the .308 Ishys had aluminum buttplates. Every one I've seen has, as does the one my buddy has. Alas, I'm no exspurt on Ishapore Enfields.
You could ask around on Gunboards Enfield forum - those fellers could tell ya for sure.

Certainly a good buy at that price! Even if you end up with a blaster, you done ok. I might try to find such a thing in the future.

Think I'll let it pass...there is an old revolver in 95 % condition that I want to bid on...watching it till the last minute...ain't gonna get into a bidding war this soon...auction is over next Wednesday.

these your words or the seller???

just what is a Navy Arms Collector grade???

refinished metal and wood, mag and bolts do not match. whats collector about that??? nothing.

save yer dough for something better

[NRAJOE]

Sellers words...I'm letting this one go...either gonna bid on the like new H&R break action or find something tomorrow at the gunshow. I'm on my 3rd night of my 7 night in a row work week...get off at 6am...gunshow is at 8am...might as well stay up and see if a new or new to me used gun will sooth my feelings! Its theraputic don't ya know?

[PAPA G]

don't blame you Joe, hey when you leave work go straight to the gunshow put on your track shoes and be first in the door :right:

that way you can hit all the tables before the bubba's get in

its a !!!!ed shame, all them old Top Breaks that no one wanted, have ended up in the Hell of online auctions at 'diculous prices.

[NRAJOE]

No ones made a new bid in 3 days...its low now...gonna sit back and watch it and try to slide in at the last minute...if I bid my max, some dingle will come along and inflate the price! I still don't know why someone won't come along and make a modern version of the break action!

[NRAJOE]

P.S. I'm a member of the Maumee Valley Gun Collectors Association that holds the show...we get in for free and get in a 1/2 hour before the public to check out the deals first!

same here, a new top break .22 short up to 44.mag would be a start.

a couple years ago at a German equivelent of our SHOT show, Russiashowed off its .357 top break, with a polymer frame. i wish i knew why its not imported.
