    Wouldn't at all be surprised if that particular specimen is an ex service rifle. In service from about 1990 for ten years or so.

    Do you mean ex NZ Police? I thought they were all scrapped unlike the Sako .222's that were sold off.

    It looks to be in too nicer condition to have been handled by too many people that didn't actually own it themselves

    I bought it off the forum before Christmas. I was amazed no one else snapped it up.
