    Three very different guns values?

    I love my 44. I borrowed one as my first deer rifle before my 30/30. So later I got one. Ruger did try to reproduce them a few years ago. The Deerfield I think. I looked up the WA ban list thinking maybe the 10/22 got banned also. I did not see any Rugers. I would imagine a couple made the list.??

    WW2 firearm replica for my son?

    Oh man! Too bad about the Garand but it might be a bit overwhelming at 8! When I was a teen in the 80s those were hand me me down deer rifles! I wish I knew then what i know now! He'll come around to it eventually. Another M-1 around wouldn't hurt? He might get the drift that it might be his...

    What's the best gun deal you've ever gotten?

    Paid 400 for a first year 10/22 mag in perfect condition with a burris scope! no box. Last year. They knew what they had but wanted it to go to a good home. Ive gotten some incredible free ones also but that should be another topic.
