Back in 2009 I went to a gun show in Gonzlas, LA. on a Sunday which turned out to be a wast of time. Prices were marked up so high it wasn't funny.
Well, the Cabela's store was on the way home and my son Austin asked to stop buy and look, so we did.
I found out that the guy that ran the gun dept. when they first opened about a year or two earlier was no longer there and the new guy was trying to clear out all the used guns that the old guy over paid for. They had a bunch of used guns marked down to what were fair prices. Some were marked down $100 or more.
Well they had two Russian TZO-17-01, 22 bolt action rifles marked down from $199 to $99 they were in pertty good shape but missing the magazines.
I passed on the little rifle due to the missing mag. but the next day, found out where I can get new magazines for $25. So I went back and got one of the rifles. The one I got is all original and the SN# on the bolt matches the rifle. The other rifle looked a little better but the stock had been cut and a rubber recoil pad nicely installed.
It shoots pretty good.
