A friend of mine has an old Winchester Model 670 .30-06 which his father bought used about 30 years ago and hasn't shot since the late 80's. It appears to be in good shape, no visible rust, bolt moves smoothly and has been in a rifle bag in a cool, dry cedar closet for several years.
It has a Tasco (Japanese) 3-9x32 scope which has no markings on it other than #629W on the ocular ring. The movement is smooth and it seems to be in good shape, clear glass, reticle intact.
He's not a shooter and wants to sell the rifle and the scope. I would consider the deal and might move the scope to one of my Marlin .22lr if I can find out anything about it.
So, can anyone give me any info on either the rifle or the scope and/or what to look for when inspecting the setup? We haven't even begun to discuss price.
