I'd gotten burned on three online purchases of expensive used collectable Browning, Kimber & Cooper rifles early last winter, and had just about decided to say to heck with buying used 22RF rifles online. Was going to call ANA, send them a copy of my ffl, then buy a new 1712 w/Anschutz North American warranty...then this 1712 showed up over on RFC. So far, I'm not the least bit disappointed with it, and it came with the D3 trigger shoe, which I like a lot. I kept looking, and found a nice used Leupold VX-II 6-18x40 for this rifle - have the same scopes on several of my other nice 22RF sporters, and wish Leupold still made this version of the 6-18x40... If you look at the bottom edge of the cheekpiece, just above the rear sling swivel, you can see a tiny little ding in the wood - this is the only mark I could find on this used rifle's stock, and the former owner & his son had hunted squirrels with it. Some folks just know how to take care of nice rifles...
