Dakota 76 Serial # R0109 : 24” barrel with small muzzle porting, beautiful bore and chamber. Overall bluing is 95% with some markings on the bottom metal.  4 cartridges magazine that feeds flawlessly.  3 position safety.

I fitted the claw mount 10 years ago with a most desirable 70° rail Schmidt and Bender 1.25-4 x20 . Bases and all furnitures were soft soldered at that time. What a shame the scope industry privileged ease of mounting over true reliability…

Weight is 9lbs 9oz without the scope 10 Lbs. 12 oz. with it. LOP is 13 1/2” over a 1” Decelerator pad. The stock is solid with great grain alignment in the grip.

It has the marks of a gun that has been on safari a couple times.

Tough, proven set up , coming with dies, 80 rounds of new Superior ammo Swift Aframe and 60 rounds of customer’s handload.
