    Norinco model 4 early JW15

    Just finished doing a quick restore of a JW15 manufactured for ClayCo in Kansas USA mid 1980s
    Got the gun recently off the for sale site just for local pest control, decided to clean it up a bit and
    Made the decision to shorten barrel to 17” a good polish up re crowned cold blued and pleased how it’s
    Turned out. It had a Nikko silver crown on top but I would like (I think) but still thinking of 2-7x32 bushnell rimfire
    If anyone has one. Trigger feels very good and this early one has the over travel screw as standard.
    The stock needs a clean up but I’m going to use as is for the time being as I want to introduce it to the bunnies.Name: IMG_0210.jpeg Views: 127 Size: 580.2 KB

    physically smaller scope or just less magnification? I've got a 1-4x20 Barska scope I picked up from a member for $50 that I'm no longer going to use.. but it probably weighs more than the 4x32 you currently have.
