At one of my favorite local gun shops I came across a Pre 17 today. I was in a hurry to get little man to ice cream after finishing 1st grade, but here’s what I know from my quick look at it.

4 screw
Has the ribbed barrel so I’m thinking 1956
Has later model Target football stocks

They just brought it into the store & didn’t have a price on it. Not in perfect shape cosmetically but mechanically felt tight. Maybe 80% give or take. They know me in there & made a point to show it to me. I’ll go back tomorrow & look at it again plus they will have it priced by then. I’m already thinking I’ll take it home. It would make a nice sibling to my Model 48 from them.
