The Model 742 is a gas-operated, semi-automatic design chambered in .30-06, with right-side ejection and a right-side charging handle. This example uses the 22 inch barrel, distinguishing it from the shorter carbine variant.
A Tasco 3-9x32 riflescope is installed, providing versatile magnification for a wide range of hunting and field conditions. The see-through scope mount allows continued use of the factory iron sights while the optic is mounted.
Factory irons include a ramped front sight with a colored insert and an adjustable rear barrel sight, giving clear sighting options with or without the scope. The detachable box magazine feed system is standard to the platform; this listing does not include a magazine.
The walnut stock has a Monte Carlo comb, pressed basketweave checkering, white-line spacers, sling swivel studs, and a hard buttplate. Length of pull measures 13.25 inches. A front sling swivel is installed.
Made in the United States, this late-production Woodsmaster falls within the 1978-1981 period, which is associated with B-prefix serials for the series.
