The Glenfield Model A .308 Winchester is an American-made bolt-action rifle with a 20-inch threaded barrel and a factory-installed Picatinny scope base (Glenfield part no. 52001). Glenfield built it around simplicity, with a splatter-finished Moss Green stock, a cold hammer-forged barrel and a trigger you can adjust between 3 and 5 pounds. The threaded muzzle ships with a thread protector installed, so a muzzle device can go on when you want one. The .308 Winchester has one of the widest ammunition selections of any rifle cartridge. It is a no-frills rifle for deer hunting and range shooting.

Key Specifications
