Description
This is a single Christensen Arms Model 14 Ridgeline bolt-action rifle chambered in 6.5-284 Norma, designed for precision long-range hunting. The rifle is equipped with a 26-inch carbon fiber-wrapped stainless steel barrel featuring a 1:8 twist rate and a removable stainless steel radial muzzle brake. The stainless steel receiver features a spiral-fluted bolt with an oversized black bolt knob for efficient cycling. The synthetic sporter stock is finished in green with black and tan webbing and includes a textured grip for enhanced control. This firearm comes mounted with two-piece black Talley scope rings and includes a black LimbSaver recoil pad. Extensive markings are visible on the firearm; the left side of the receiver is marked MODEL 14 and with the serial number 14M 07237, while the right side displays the manufacturer’s logo and CHRISTENSEN ARMS GUNNISON, UT USA. The barrel is transcribed as Ridgeline 6.5-284 Norma 1-8 and Christensen Arms Gunnison Utah USA. The rifle is accompanied by its original factory box, owner’s manual, product registration card, a container of gun oil, and a stainless steel thread protector. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The stainless steel receiver and muzzle brake are in excellent condition, showing no significant signs of wear or handling. The carbon fiber barrel wrap is pristine, and the bore is bright with sharp, well-defined rifling, suggesting the firearm is likely unfired. The bolt action cycles smoothly and the trigger pull is crisp; however, we have not function-tested this firearm with live ammunition. The synthetic stock is in excellent condition with no visible scratches or dings. The original box shows some shelf wear and compression but remains structurally intact.
