				U.S. Model 1917 Winchester
			 
 
			
			I was in a gun shop today wasting time and saw a mint U.S. Model 1917 Winchester .30-06 bolt action from WWI.  It was sitting in a sporter stock, but the metal was uncut.  The barrel date is 1-18 and is like new.  It had a hang tag price of $179, but there is a ten percent discount today on all firearms.  I bought it and have an original stock and metal on hand to restore it to original condition.  Right next to the sporterized 1917 was a good condition 1917 Eddystone marked at $999 and reduced to $799.  My rifle once restored will be even nicer.  Take care...Joe
