Which gun to sell

[bob weeman]

G&H mount and a Lyman peep is a great set up....I use peep sights now more than scopes even with older eyes....A Redfield sourdough front sight or a regular bead front sight filed square is a great addition...square is less affected by sunlight in my opinion....

Griffin and Howe side mounts are very versatile. I have one great Springfield sporter with three sighted in scopes in Griffin and Howe tops. I carry the two spares in leather scope cases, just in case.

[C.O.B.]

Take the scope off the newer Winchester and sell the rifle. The scope won't add that much value (about 25% of the cost of the scope when it was new) you can keep it for future use or sell it separately.

Bill, is it a G&H Springfield? Walter Eiserer did some great ones while working there. Many more people seem to prefer their Mauser auctioned guns, but I always seem to go against the flow.
I have a .22 Hornet on an '03 receiver that Walter made, in the classic G&H stock, but not marked as such, as he built it after leaving there.
RG Owen was another who thought highly of G&H mounts and since he was head of Winchesters custom dept. for many years, it just makes sense a M70 should have one.
