This a late 1990's to Early 2000's serial #, I'm the 2nd owner...bought it from my uncle 10 years ago and he had never hunted with it, liked the allure that the "BAR" carries! It sits in my safe and collects dust...the first thing I did when taking ownership of this rifle was have my gunsmith disassemble and deep clean everything. While the gun was disassembled I had the gunsmith cerakote the barrel/brake & action. I hunted with this rifle for 2 years (total of 2 elk/mule deer camps), cerakoting the metal parts was to keep any build-up of rust on any metal surface. I shoot this gun once or twice a year for fun, has maybe had 300 rounds down the tube in its life time. Comes with 72 rounds of premium ammo. Thanks for inquiring, let me know.
