Thanks guys. It is hard to photograph...when the sunlight hits it, the stock really glows. The figure dances around a lot too, disappearing/re-appearing depending on the light and angle. In the pics above, it took on the color of the setting sun.

Here are a couple of shots after the sun fell behind some clouds...

Haven't done any thing with those models. But I have a Winchester model 75 target rifle that is fantastic

I got so excited about the T-Bolt, I forgot why I started the thread to begin with...

The shop called on Saturday to say my scope order was in, and I left with the idea in my head of bringing that .22 Mag home too. Well, it had been sold last week. The owner remembered me looking at the Stevens, and said he was going to take it home, but if I wanted to take another look, it was up in his office...I could buy it if I wanted. Again, good guy.

I didn't get a pic, but it looks like this:

I was ready to say "I'll take it", when something in the corner with a slide on it caught my eye (I love .22 pumps). When I read the words "Fabrique Nationale D'Armes De Guerre Herstal Belgique" and "Browning's Patent-Depose", I was like :o ...I know what this is.
I put down a deposit, and picked it up yesterday...will start a new thread, and post some pics when I get some time.

I stopped by the shop and checked out another 3 'old' guns on the used rack today...

Number 1 was a Remington Matchmaster (513T), and very clean. Globe front sight, but missing inserts. Nice rifle...it was hard to put down. On the bright side, I now know what magazine I need to get for a CBC Model 122 bolt-action .22 I picked up a while back.

Number 2 was a Remington 1100 LW in .410. I'm not much of a shotgun guy, but a .410 auto loader sounds like fun. One could put a dent in the local starling population with one of those.

Number 3 was a Winchester 490 .22LR that looks like it just came out of the box.
