The right side of the barrel is stamped with IMPORTED BY MOSSBERG INTERNATIONAL, INC. NORTH HAVEN, CT and .17 HMR Caliber Only Made in Brazil by CBC Model 817.

Condition report:
The metal surfaces retain nearly all of their original blued finish with only minor handling marks and faint scratches visible on the barrel and receiver. The hardwood stock is in good condition with some light dings and surface impressions consistent with moderate use but no visible cracks or structural damage. The bore has not been inspected. The bolt action appears to move smoothly and the trigger mechanism functions during dry fire, though the firearm has not been live fire tested. The optic shows some wear to the camo finish but the glass is clear and the reticle is sharp.
