| I finally Bought a #1
After wishing and admiring #1's for over 35 years (since I saw one in a 1974 Gun Digest) I finally bought one last week.
I had priced a #1-A at the local gun dealer and he quoted me fair price (over $200 under MSRP), but I held off not sure if I wanted at 22" barrel. Then last week I gun an April E-mail flyer from Davidson's and they listed a #1-B for several hundred less than that. They only had them in 30-06 and .270 and less than 10 each.
So I called my local gun dealer and had him order one for me. It came in last Friday, and it is BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Saturday I mounted my best scope from my hunting rifle and zeroed it in and I love it.
I checked Davidson's flyer this evening and they are all gone.

Congrats. You will not regret your purchase. I love # 1s. I have 4 of them and they are all great rifles. You can't have too many. Get ready, you'll most likely have to have another in your future.

Way to go! The suspense is killing us, though: What caliber did you get?  | |
