I had been wanting a 82 Government for years but as life has it, usually no money when I did see one. About a month ago, a friend asked me to meet him at a local gun store. I was there early and found one on the rack...brand new in the box. The sights still sealed in the plastic as was the bolt untill they put it up for sell. But wait, I had money this time! My first Kimber. Then Monday, I was in my local gun store where I live and there in the racks was another 82 Government. This one was way nicer. The guys were laughing as they knew I would pick it up...they know me to well. They then told me it had history.
It was owned, and worked on by “Ol Hook” Boutin. He purchased it and is CoA thru the CMP. Naturally, I am very proud to be the custodian of this very nice rifle.
