Found out today I am inheriting a Remington 241 Speedmaster .22LR that was my Grandfathers. Any one familiar with these rifles? Would you use it or retire it to the gun safe due to it's sentimental value? A relative in Iowa has the gun and my parents tracked it down after 59 years!!!

I found some manuals online for it but not much else. Parts look to be very scarce. I was told it's in good shape, will post pictures when I get it.
