REMINGTON Model 541-S CUSTOM SPORTER 22 LR NICE!

Some of you may know the Remington 541 S Sporter is a highly sought after rifle, especially one in this condition. Engraved and grooved for scope mounting (drilled and tapped). High gloss checkered walnut stock. Excellent overall condition with a brilliant metal finish. The bore is bright and clean, the rifling is sharp. Don’t believe it’s been shot much at all.
Just so you know, this gun has been modified by a craftsman gunsmith, not a guy with hacksaw. I bought this gun as it is exactly now. It’s one of the most beautiful 22 rifles I’ve owned. I believe the barrel was 24” when it came out in 1972 but was cut down to 20” at some time. However, as far as I know the 20’ barrel was the way it came from factory originally as custom upgrade. The barrel crowning wasn’t cut by an amateur for sure – see pic. The butt plate isn’t original but has a decent Remington plate. I’m sure it can be made to look like original. I don't know a lot more about this rifle, other than I had a gunsmith at Fine Guns in Bass Pro evaluate it and he said the custom work was done by a professional. I’m planning on going to the gun show in Springfield this weekend to see if I can possibly find a better butt plate to fit. Perhaps the previous owner wanted it customized a little shorter for a youngster to shoot, I don't know. All I know is that it's a very nice 22 rifle that’s near excellent condition and possibly values at for a lot more than I'm asking. I just need the cash right now for house projects. If I don’t get what I thinks it is worth, no problem. I really would like to hold on to it to give to one of grandchildren someday. I’m firm on my price.
