Congratulations, Leo. If 'ya decide to peddle the Zeiss, let me know. I've a VZ 24 in .257 Roberts Ackley Improved that needs 'glass. I'm a bolt guy myself. With a laminate stock, Timney trigger, Dakota 70 style safety, Redfield mounts, Brownells barrel, bolt, and sling, this one is accurate out to yardage that should be illegal. It isn't really anything to look at, however.
Never mind Thorny, he's still sore from taking it up the pipe so badly on his Paris sidelock before he discovered Americana implement guns. Wish I had known him then, I'd have screwed him without even kissing him either, same as the other dealer did.
Best,
Ted
