Any time I have asked, WSS gives me the same story, "None in stock. No idea if we will ever see one again."

I have only ever seen one at P&D, but I know it was sold. Check with Phil, maybe he can order one for you.

Default Tried one at Wholesale, wasn't impressed.

The first thing that I noticed, is some idiot bent the bolt handle in such a way that it is only about a quarter inch away from my knuckle. Guess what would be getting rapped when you touch off a magnum caliber? Not my idea of encouraging good shooting, getting hit by the bolt!

The shape of the stock was very square in the cross section and not very rounded. It almost reminds me of the stocks on those Remington 770 or whatever their predecessor was. Like holding a 2x4. Angle of grip sucked.

I love the concept of the model 48, sounded perfect, but when I held it, I was very disappointed, Especially considering the price. Not much more to get a full custom built to spec by Corlane.

I also had one in my hands at WSS and wasnt impressed with it.
No way I'd spend my money on it.
