Today at the Centralia, WA show, I went out to my car to get my coffee thermos when I saw a familiar face standing in line waiting to get in to the show. It was our friend, Sam Johnson. I stopped to talk and one thing led to another and Sam proceeded to tell me he had a 77RS Hollow bolt rifle chambered in 7x57 with a Leupold scope on it in the car and asked if I was interested. Well of course I was..... 8) .

Now, I went to the show to SELL some stuff, NOT to buy....... So Sam shows me this beautiful rifle and I was smitten. Anyway, I am glad he showed up and glad he brought the 7x57. Excuse the poor pics, but it is a beauty. Thanks, Sam.....I think. :D

Today, Sam returned and we swapped some 7x57 brass he had for a partial box of 41 Mag ammo. Good trade! Thanks for the visit, Sam! :D

Heliman...I know the feeling :lol: you sure purchased a fine rifle 8) 8) I talked him out of his personal microsighted RSSM. I really wanted it because it belonged to Sam Johnson a outstanding man and RUGER collector :!: :!: Image
