Payment Types Accepted: Visa,Master Card, Discover,Check Description: For sale, a beautiful vintage custom rifle built by Roy Vail in .458 Win Mag ready to go to Africa or take on North America's large and/or dangerous game. This rifle was built on a WW2 German K98 action by Mauser. You can still barely see the code of "BYF" on the receiver ring which was one of Mauser's codes during the war. These Mauser rifles were well known for their brute strength and ability to be rebarreled in even the largest magnum calibers. Consequently, many custom rifle makers bought up all the K98s they could after WW2 to use in building their rifles. Roy Vail was a well known custom rifle maker in the 1950's and 60's and built high quality custom rifles in many different grades and calibers. This rifle is rock solid, very attractive, and has a great bore. It was built with great balance and points really well. It has a vintage Lyman receiver mounted adjustable peep sight as well as a Griffin and Howe scope base ready for optics. There are sling attachment points on the buttstock and soldered on the barrel. Roy Vail's name is stamped in gold on top of the barrel. This is a real classic custom big bore rifle with a lot of class at a GREAT price!
