[QUOTE="mightymouse, post: 2538820, member: 15253"] Here is a rare Keng's NS-522. Some 2000 of these were imported as barrelled actions in the mid 1990s, then they were stocked by the importer, Keng's Firearms Specialities of Atlanta, Ga, in American walnut stocks provided by the Bishop Gun Stock Co. After that initial batch, the US enacted a ban on Chinese-made firearms (the 522 is a Norinco Sports product) and no more were imported. Renowned for its accuracy, the NS-522 was very popular among small bore silhouette shooters in the mid to late 1990s, and these days it is quite sought after by rimfire rifle enthusiasts. This one features a boat load of accuracy work by the well known upstate NY gunsmith J.C. Blauvelt, and it is topped by a Leupold 3-9X33 Rimfire EFR scope. The trigger releases at under one pound of pressure, and the rifle is very accurate. It is the pride of my collection.[URL=http://s1211.photobucket.com/user/johnnydollar1949/media/009_zps7fb769c1.jpg.html][b][Broken External Image][/b][/URL] [/QUOTE]
