About a month ago a guy I shoot handguns with mentioned he had a 99 in 284 win. I told him I always wanted one but it never worked out. he then told me his son was the real owner of the rifle. Today he told me his son said go ahead sell the rifle. I asked him how much and he said $300 without the scope but would give the mounts rings and dies. I gave him the money sight unseen and will get the rifle on Friday night. Can's wait to see what I have, all I know for sure is it a clip model. How many models were made?
