Well found this at a gun show, just happier than a cold hog in a warm mud hole. So what scope would you put on this? Even got 3 boxs of ammo......

You bought three boxes of ammo and got a gun. When you can find a couple of bricks of the stuff, then worry about scopes. |

according to the books Remington made about 13,000 Model 591 and 7000 Model 592M from 1969-1973. Aquila is making ammo for the 5MM again, called Centurion 30grHP shoots about 2300 fps. The ammo is available from www.ammunitiontogo.com for 149.95 a brick or 15.95 per box of 50. |

My next door neighbor had one of these when I was growing up. They were GREAT for tree rats! They were hard to get ammo for in the late 70's.
