Thanks Adam, I remember now after you set me straight, it was a 7.65, this was back in the early 70's I bought one for $35.00, it was in mint condition, my brother said he wanted it to keep in his collection, about a year after I had it. It shot true and being the good person I am, I thought, he's my brother so I sold it to him for what I'd payed for it. Little did I know, he had it sold before he got it off me, about a week after I sold it to my brother, a guy was telling me about this type of rifle, and I told him I use to have one like it, he said well, he had bought it off of my brother for $150.00 bucks, back then that was a damn good profit, needless to say, he never bought any more guns from me.
