Triple S Development Co. Inc. Wickliffe Model 76 .270 Win rifle
Description
s/n 01442, brl length 26", very good plus condition except, falling block action. SSS Dev. Co. Inc. was in business from 1976-1980 selling very expensive for its time hunting rifles that were both reliable and accurate. This example is the most famous model bearing the Liberty Bell on the barrel. The fancy walnut pistol grip stock is smooth having a left side cheek rest, medium comb, silver plated embossed grip cap with area for a monogram the space of which is currently blank and a Bishop black composite checkered butt plate. The forend is fancy smooth walnut also and the rifle is fitted with a Redfield 6x 1" tube scope on Burris mounts. The receiver/frame is plum blued and the block is machinist jeweled having a serrated trigger and hammer spur. The deep blue high gloss bluing on the barrel shows very little handling as does most of the rifle and the reason the rifle was graded very good plus except for the bore, the rifle shows very little handling and or wear. The bore is very very dirty and it is unknown whether or not it will clean up. Item is part of the Mark T. Hoke Estate. All items sold As Is per terms of the auction. Please read terms. Functionality and completeness unknown. 19-17-7
