Newbie help purchasing a rifle..

Lots of alternatives, but you may wish to try the annual gun auction at Bud Haynes Aucion in Red Deer, held in August. They usually seem to have a few of varying quality and vintage. That's the big auction, there are other smaller ones through the year where you may find something.

I may be looking for one this summer, so let's hope we're not bidding against each other.
