Last week I stopped at a gun shop I frequently pass, but which has never been open before.
They have a very nice condition -- bluing is probably 85-90%, wood MAY be refinished, but possibly not -- and it had both the buckhorn barrel sight and the peep sight on top of the bolt slide.
Price was $1,500.
That seems as if it's a good price, but I'm just not certain as I don't know much about the 71 at all.
I have NO need for a 71, I have no real desire for a 71, but that one is just... whispering to me.
Any thoughts?
