It is a "used" gun but in great shape. I bought it from a good friend. Gun was a safe queen for sure. And I agree it looks too pretty but just like my other guns its going to get used..that's what they're for. Believe they were discontinued in 2007??

Nice gun. Probably had one of the X-Mark Pro triggers ..I have a 700 in 22-250 and it was the same deal. This 17 did not fall into any recall notices.

Sorry for the late reply..Took me a while to find the words among all the emoticons...you certainly hold true to your self proclaimed "agitator" role..Tell you what, if and when we meet up, I'll put a bow on it and let you hold it..
