Ruger .243

it went down in katrina and we picked it up after sitting in mud and flood waters until we could get in. we just took the case with us and it sat there until this past weekend

I pulled it out the case and it was nasty but had very minimal surface rust and one small spot of pitting on the barrel. after a little cleaning and a ton of oil, its in dame close to original condition. the bolt is smooth as a babies arse. Im going to take it to a gun smith soon and have him look it over. Im pretty freaking pumped to have it.

this is the best picture I have. first one on the lift.


eta: obligatory boating accident
