Looking for an original (not S2) Vanguard Back Country in .30-06

I'm looking for the original, all stainless Back Country in .30-06.  Anyone have a line on one of these?  My son killed his first buck with mine and now it's his.  I'd like to replace it but they're hard to find.

Thanks,


P

I couldn't locate one of the original ones for sale.

Thanks for the heads up but he's selling the S2 version.  I'm looking for the original version.

Keep 'em coming!

Actually, he was selling the regular version, and had it mislabeled. It's the black stock, silver finish version. The last post (today) says no longer on the market. You might still hit him up and see.

That's what I thought, too, until I saw his username.  I know the guy, he said the flash made the rifle look stainless but assured me it was the Ceracoted S2.

Sure looked like mine, though.  I paid $650 for mine, NIB.
