1956 Griffin & Howe Customized 458 Short Magnum Action

This is a 1956 "short magnum" (458) action which has been customized by Griffin & Howe during the Abercrombie & Fitch era of the company. We acquired this from a gunmaker who was thinning his parts hoard. The customizations are classic G&H, including: The G&H side scope mount Mini-jeweling of the bolt and extractor 4-panel teardrop checkering of the bolt knob Silky smoothed and trued action function Satin rust blue of the receiver to match the side mount The G&H side mount is tall height with 1" rings and is suitable for a large objective scope and a stock with a high comb.  The steel Weaver K 1.5-1 scope currently in the mount was present when we acquired the action and is period correct for a late 1950s action with a post reticle.  The condition of the action is is near perfect with no notable finish wear or other damages. The scope is also in excellent condition with crystal clear optics and just slight edge wear at the eyepiece and objective bezels.
