I bought a PARKERIZED (yes Parkerized) Win 92 in 25-20 made in 1924. Clearly the gun had been refinished but they really did a great job. No buffing and all the letters and corners are sharp.
The price reflected the refinished gun, and it was fair. I wanted it to shoot along with the Savage Sporter in 25-20.
I would like to scope the gun. I know it has to be drilled and tapped and I am not worried about the collector's value....after all, it has been refinished.
I would like to have a talk with my gunsmith but I really don't know where to start with mount choices and scopes. I'd like to use it as a woodchuck gun.
Just on prinicple, I would like to avoid drilling and tapping the gun, but if I have to, so be it.
Suggestions?
