gleninjersey 2,134 Posted May 18, 2018 I was browsing some of the firearms YouTubers I haven't looked at in a bit when I came across this very interesting rifle. Bolt AND semi 22! Beretta Olympia. A very nice looking rifle with classic wood stock with nice looking old school checkering manufactured in the 1950s & 1960s. Military surplus available for sale through J&G Sales. Thought some of you might be interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=litRIalQsow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
capt14k 2,051 Posted May 18, 2018 It was also brought up on another thread too. I found it to be cool enough to order one and then I found an original rear Diopter Sight. Both have shipped. Thanks for giving it it's own thread. Also thanks to WP22 for posting that there is a $40 off coupon Olympia40 that brings total shipped to $380. Rear Diopter is nearly as expensive as the rifle. There are also aftermarket scope mounts that can be purchased for around $100 shipped. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WP22 1,558 Posted May 29, 2018 So I got mine on Saturday. Thank you @Oakridgefirearms for doing the transfer. Tom is a good guy and not only I'll use him again, I'll also recommend him. Anyway, like a dope I didn't take any pictures. The guts are fine; no rust and weren't messed with, that I could tell, at least. The action is smooth. The crown is perfect. The bore isn't bright/shiny/new but looked perfect. The riffling looked sharp, too. Overall the steel is in very good shape. The wood on the other hand. Chips, divots and cuts are expected. But the finish is just too far gone. I may have to commit a sacrilege and refinish the stock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I requested one but didn't get one.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
