I came into a cased 25-2 that shows very little evidence of being fired much at all.

Grown man in his 40's listed it on a local gun trading website stating he needed a semi-auto rifle for ranch use, etc.....

I traded him a French Mas 49/46 with a few accessories and ammo that I had maybe $400 tied up in back then.

He was happy and I was happy. I still have a couple Mas 49/56 examples as they were cheap to buy back then........but I only have one 25-2.

Sometimes you just get lucky.
