Hi Guys,

I'm trading for an SP1 that is all original from the late '70s.  It has less than 100 rounds down the pipe.  So it is in great shape.  The advice I need......

Do I shoot it, or put in the safe and let it stay there?  I know these fantastic rifles were made to shoot, but what to do?

Thanks in advance!  Best Regards,

PatG.

Go ahead and shoot it, Clean it, Then put it in the safe until it is time to go to the range again. At least that is what I would do with it. Way to many of them to really be considered a Collectors item just  yet.

I bought 2 during the ban!!! Had 2 allready, sold 3 kept the sweetest. I love the SP1 model... But
I lost $ on the sales. Unless there is another ban, or intrest in them in ban states increases. I would say spend wise and shot, shot, shot.
