I agree with Cookie ... it doesn't impress me much - looks to me like they took a perfectly good rifle and turned it into a wall hanger with bling. Ouch

P.S There are so many things wrong with that sale description and possible elements that breech the trade practices act it's not funny ...

# - Sanding stocks ...
# - Some mysterious registry to authenticate the supposed LOW numbers that they themselves created out of 100?

Dare I say more.

Ode to a Beeter Enfield
 
The finish is mostly faded
The stock been beat to hell
The poor is sadly pitted
It never will shoot well
But I have some respect for this old rifle of mine
Mayber reason for its condition it that it is dated 1939
Have a Nice Day
If already having a nice day please disregard

You fellows are right. And I really like old ratty rifles the best. It's just that it's nice and good to see an old soldier in dress uniform (if you understand what I mean "bling"). And I dig the fact of the honor it stands for.
Of course I would shoot it if it were mineBig%20smile.

I googled Frontier but could not find it. Can that rifle be exported to the U.S.?
