I was saying to a mate the other day how inexpensive rifles are now. My first centrefire was an 8x57 WW2 Mauser. Cost me $70. When I bought the Ruger I paid a deposit (probably about $50), took it home from Sutherland Sports in New Plymouth, and every Friday night went up to NP to make another payment on it. The receipts all stapled in a little cardboard book each time. I don't think that would happen today ha ha That would have been about 1982 when I bought the Ruger.
