We're the Remington XP's produced with a stainless steel action.

Looked at a XP-100 today in a local gun shop. The action looked to match what I thought was a heavy stainless steel barrel with a bead blasted finish. The action was greyish in color like the barrel and had also been bead blasted. The shop owner thought the action was a standard blued action that was stripped and bead blasted but I thought the action would have been shiny er in appearance.
I couldn't recall ever seeing a stainless XP for sale.

Nope. Lots of people had them plated and such tho.

It's either plated or paint. Is the barrel stamped SSK by any chance?

Barrel has no markings on it at all. It's 14 inches and about 1 inch diameter. Has a nice blond rear grip stock. Shop owner thinks it chambered in 204 Ruger. He got 7 XPs in an estate sale. This one is the only custom one all the others have the brown plastic stocks.

Seven !! No wonder I can't find any.:p:p

I was just curious. JD (SSK) chromed a lot of actions including the Contender.

Any idea what $$$ they were going for? Asking for a friend. ;)

Mike
He had just unboxed them when I walked in so they didn't have tags on them yet. I'm going back up there on Tuesday or Wednesday to try and work out a deal on the 204 Ruger.

I will let you know about prices. One was a 10 inch vent ribbed 221 FB. Two 14 inch 223's. One 14 inch 7mm BR and I will check the other calibers.
