re: #361 oaktree
Well, my deer hunting rifle was designed to kill people. It’s a re-purposed military arm. (Sport-converted KAR 98 that fires 8mm Mauser.)
My deer rifle is/was a 1942 Springfield .30-06 that belonged to my grandfather. Here’s a picture of one…and after one of my dad’s old patients (a lifelong gunsmith) put a new barrel on it for me when I was 16, I had him keep the Lyman peep sights…liked those better than a scope.
