I love the old m1917 rifles. They have a lot of history and they sure do work damn slick. I've had one since I was 12 years old, so I guess that makes me a little biased toward them. I took my sporterized m1917 out the other day and dumped a nice fork with it. Worked as it should. This rifle has had the stock re-worked/re-contoured and refinished by yours truly, I also swapped out the old military trigger for a good Timney that breaks very cleanly at 2.5 pounds. This one is a shooter too. Lately I've been using 200 grain nosler partitions, because they were on sale at SPS for $13.45/bag. Hard to go wrong there:
This is one of my favorite rifles and for good reason. This was my zero check right before deer season:
I'd like to hear some stories from you guys that like these old rifles. Pics are never a bad thing either. Good luck with your hunting and be safe out there...
