for-sale Eddystone US Model of 1917 $500

[austin7.62]

Looking to sell my eddystone M1917 (1,098,xxx, 11/18 barrel). I bought this a couple of years ago from RTI, and it has certainly seen better days. I took this rifle down and cleaned all of the grease and dirt out of it, and got it put back together. It’s not a very pretty rifle. A lot of the finish is gone, it is crusty in spots, and the stock has a crack in it on the right side by the receiver and hand guard. I have not attempted to repair the crack, and I have lost interest in this firearm and have a nicer example now. The rifle does have some positives, such as: a decent to good bore, with some wear and pitting throughout. It is complete, and the sights work and are not frozen or anything like that. I have not fired this weapon, but function tested it, and it seems to work fine. Restock the rifle, or repair the cracked stock, and you have what is probably a good shooter. $500, obo. Prefer Lenoir city/maryville/west Knox meet. You can PM me and I can text/email you more pictures.

 Safety Reminder for Buyers and Sellers 

This is an automatic reply meant to protect you as a buyer and a seller on TGO.

• Use the Buyer/Seller Feedback feature to research who you are dealing with.   Please come back and leave feedback for each other after the transaction is complete.  Your experience will help others.
   
• Never agree to use an electronic form of payment to buy or sell a gun!  None of the electronic payment services will protect you against fraud in a firearms transaction.  They all have terms of service FORBIDDING the use of their services to buy/sell guns.  DON'T DO IT.
   
• Be very wary of anyone who insists on brokering a deal in private or outside of TGO.  Scammers almost always prefer to operate out of the public eye.

Side by side which rifle is more accurate in stock military form with period ammo? The Mosin, the 1903, 1917, or K98? 

I don't want to include the Swiss because I know that answer lol.
