Interarms Mark X 30-06..... Opinions? - 12/26/17 03:50 PM
I recently came across my dads old Interarms Mark X 30-06 sitting in his closet where it hasn't moved in 15+ years, and while looking at McMillian Stocks online for a different rifle I notice that McMillian actually makes a stock for the Interarms X and it got me to thinking about doing a restore/modifying this rifle to something that's actually useful.
This is the same model

This particular 30-06 has a wood stock and P.O.S. no name scope on it, and really the only reason my dad even has this rifle is that a co-worker of his needed money back in 1985 and refused my dads attempts to loan him money unless he took the gun...... so I'm thinking it might be worth breathing some life into this old rifle as either a refurbished "loaner rifle" or using the action and or barrel as a custom build.
The action seems sound and is obviously a Mauser action, I'm just wondering if any of you guys have experience with these rifles and if its worth putting the time into?
