Gun Collectors Dream Auction #88 December 5th & 6th
Lot 495:
Description
This lot features a Mossberg MVP Predator bolt-action rifle chambered in 5.56mm NATO. This rifle is equipped with a 20-inch medium bull barrel featuring longitudinal fluting and a matte black finish. The barreled action is bedded in an attractive gray and brown laminated wood stock, which is uniquely adorned with laser-etched “M” logos on the forend and textured grip panels for a secure hold. The receiver is topped with a Sig Sauer Whiskey5 3-15x44mm scope, featuring a HellFire Quadplex reticle and quick-detach mounting rings. Key markings include the barrel inscription “MOSSBERG – CALIBER 5.56mm NATO – MVP SERIES NORTH HAVEN, CT, U.S.A.” and the serial number “MVP015974” on the receiver. The bolt is spirally fluted, enhancing both aesthetics and cycle smoothness. The rifle includes three detachable box magazines: one 10-round factory magazine and two 30-round STANAG-style magazines. The firearm is completed with a Mossberg-branded rubber recoil pad and integrated sling swivel studs. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The rifle presents in excellent physical condition, retaining approximately 98% of its original matte black finish with only minor handling marks visible on the barrel and receiver. The laminated wood stock is durable and well-preserved, showing no cracks or significant dings. The bore is bright with sharp, well-defined rifling. The bolt cycle is smooth, and the action appears to function correctly, though we have not function-tested this firearm. The Sig Sauer optic is clear with a functional illuminated reticle. The included magazines show light surface wear consistent with standard use.
