  1. Asking 799. I told them 500. They said that is what they had in it and couldn't go that low so I walked.

     

    Gun is in great condition as far as finish. Considering its 15 years old it looked good. I just couldn't buy without knowing about it.

     

    Anyone have any opinion on year 2000 guns? I am only knowledgable about 2008+.

    Tell the owner of the pawn shop Cabelas is selling brand new saiga 556 for $500 and you'll give them $400 for that used rifle, and ask them if they have taken it out an shot it to see if it even works...

     

    Who knows what they paid for it....? But Cabelas has them NIB for $500...lol a little apple to pear comparison

    Ed your link is for .223/5.56 not .308

    Did you find .308 at Cabelas?

  2. No tags in Bama. Many guys I work with hunt on their own land here and prep their own kills. Also manage their land very effectively. Several areas of the state do not have cell coverage and many older men do not use the internets.

     

    I personally know many "rednecks" who will not comply if this goes into effect.

     

    I also wonder if people who are involved in deer accidents o. the roadways will be required to report the occurrence.

  3. Opps, sorry havent checked in on the forum lately. Work and all that.

     

    The two springs worked. I did not recieve anything except wood and screws with my set so it baffled me as to what I needed to do. The top piece looks to be routed for the springs I put in. Fits very tight now and I'm pleased with it.

     

    The wife is also happy the purple furniture isnt on it anymore. I kept telling her it is called plum. She just doesn't understand!

  4. Just purchased a Ruger LC9 at a local business that had them on sale for $310. I considered it a decent price for a CCW after reading a few quick reviews on a google search. After taking it home and doing an initial cleaning I decided to delve deeper and found a review with comments on a popular "firearm blog". Some say it malfunctions while others have no problems whatsoever. Could be ammunition choices but many blame Ruger for bad QC. I have yet to shoot it so I have no idea what I have. It does seem the manufacturer is resolving some of the problems which looked to be on guns built early in the year. Mine is a early December build so hoping for the best.

     

    Wanted to see others for this site opinions on it. What say you?

  5. Just got my Timbersmith Russian Red set in today. The top forearm piece is very loose in the rifle. I was thinking about using some aluminum foil packed into the cavity in order to stiffen the fit. Have any of you ever run into this problem before?

     

    Also, the pieces do not have heat shields. Anyone ever remedied this?

  6. I don't plan on buying much from them. Like stated, I was definitely more informed than they were. I even asked them of they had looked into galleryofguns/gungenie. They had never heard of it.

     

    I will give them my business once their range is finished and open. But only use of the range and unfortunately the purchase of their ammo per the rules. I was promised good prices on said ammo once the range got going. Details of the range are 30 yard lanes, bullet proof glass separators, automatic target retrieval/deployment, high powered rifles welcome except for .50, outside steel entry doors with unique keycodes for members. We talked about it at length and they dropped the million dollar pricetag a couple of times. Only other ranges we have around are LE private for the city and county, a members only 15 miles away with two year waiting period, and a couple about an hour away that are in wildlife management areas being nothing more than crude benches looking over knee high tall grass into a hillside. This is in northwest Alabama so good ole boys around here normally have land to shoot on as do I but an indoor range would be nice for rainy days.

  7. Went by a new gun shop that opened about 25 days ago a few miles from where I live. Gun prices weren't necessarily awful on handguns but the black guns were steep. In my conversation with them I brought up the S12 and was told they were looking into it but apprehensive because of the possibly of a ban. I told them I haven't heard the B word in several months but whatever. Also told me they had 37 orders for the Keltec KSG. (Selling at $850). They definitely acted like it was the most superior shotgun ever without even having one in house. Also, building a 16 lane indoor range. It will be the first indoor range in this area so I am excited about that.

     

    So what are the latest rumors on any bans on imported firearms?

    How deluded are they on the greatness of the KSG?
