Check the store reports....pickings look a little slim right now.

That's what I'm seeing, but will they ever get better?

If you're looking for a good shooter, you can't go wrong with one of the Special Grade rifles. There are plenty of them in stock in the store right now, too.

These are pretty much new rifles, with new barrels and furniture, and a new parkerized finish. Some of the stocks have beautiful figure.

if you're looking for something more collectible, this is not a good time to shop in the Store - the selection is limited.

Good luck!

If you are looking for a decent Service Grade it might be a few months..thats according to Orest. You could always mail order one rather than going to the store. If you have the money the store does have Service Grade Specials...basicly new rifle with new wood..$950 or you could get a Special Grade which has reparked metal, new barrel, and new wood...$995. From whats been posted lately some of the mail ordered SGs have been pretty nice.

If I was under 2 hours away id be broke (r)!!...I have a Service grade special that is amazing...sounds like they may be under 300 left..unless that's more than your pocket can handle right now...Id go check regardless...you never know!!! Agree with Shomway...throw in a mail order for a SG...it wont get charged until it ships...may be a bit...
