I'm thinking about buying a hog hunter rifle as the basis for a project. I plan on replacing the stock and barrel anyways and this model appears to be the cheapest way for me to get everything i want in an action (matte black finish, tactical bolt handle, and accutrigger).

My concern is whether or not I can easily sell the barrel to recover some of the cost. Am I missing something or would it be near impossible to line up the iron sights on another rifle without the assistance of a gunsmith?
