Today has to be one of my most exciting days. I picked up a 91/30 with matching numbers and scope side mount (matching as well). My hands reek of oil and it's fantastic! (I might need an intervention here ) Now, the bore has definitely seen better days. It's pitted and worn but the rifling still stands out. Maybe 75% condition of the bore... and that's being generous. (I am on campus right now so no pictures, they will come later) Stamped 1940 came with spike bayo and oil/conscript kit and 4x scope.
My question: Should I try shooting it or just keep it as a collector item? I am a little pessimistic about the bore condition as far as accuracy goes.
