Who made it? If you can get it for less than $200, buy it. They’re GREAT guns. I have like four, a No 1 MkIII, a .22 trainer, a No. 5 MkI (.308 caliber made at the Indian Ishipore arsenal in the 1960’s), and a No. 4 Mk 1 from WWII. I LOVE them all. Good, sturdy, fast shooting ten round magazine bolt action rifles. Love ‘em, love ‘em, love ‘em. Ammunition is very available, even some old WWII surplus (clean extremely well after shooting). And they’re priced right, too.

Is that a 2A or a 2A1? I got a 2A last November.

You've got an Ishy? Man I LOVE mine. I bought two when they were $125.00 each. One I've sporterized as a hunting type rifle and the other I've kept original.

They're both sweet shooters and the bolt is as slick as anything I've ever fired.
