Ken,
Thank you for your reply on my Model 81 purchase. Yesterday, we took it to the range. I am an NRA certified instructor at a local range and my fellow instructors said it would be okay to shoot it at the pistol range which is not the norm. We all took turns firing the Model 81. It fired flawlessly and was very accurate. I'll try to post some video, or pictures as one of the instructors is a lady. This rifle is a classic, and a very nice example of the quality of American firearms industry of yesteryear.
We only a shot a box of ammo (20 rounds) and it doesn't recoil to bad. And again, it was dead on accurate and I only wish I would have taken a picture of the target. Dah! I wish this website had more activity but I am so thankful for it!
It is a wealth of information!
Thanks again Ken!
Eric

Where am I when these kinds of deals crop up??
I am the cat who walks by himself. And all places are alike to me.

An unmolested original. Very very nice condition. Finding springpoles in condition like this is becoming more and more uncommon.

Yes you don't see them in this nice of condition very often, and even in lesser condition the prices seem to be escalating.
I think I had that 81 in .300 on my watch list.
We have a Model 8-C that was Dad's in .35 Remington and it shoots quite well for an oldie.
