I have a really nice M-1917 Sporter that my brother in law left me when he passed away a few years ago. I remember when he bought it and started working on it in the 1960's, I killed my first "rifle" deer with it in 1970, it was rough looking then. Ears ground off, original blueing, Redfield scope mount, original stock cut down. Now it has a deep blue finish, Warne mounts, Fajen stock, etc. I have seriously considered having it rechambered to 300 Win mag, but I'm not sure if the barrel is long enough to get everything out of the 300 Win Mag. My brother in law cut it to 24 inches.
The rifle shoots great and looks great.
