Arch, you are moving in the right direction Archangel14, I know that you will be happy with either. For my own needs, I prefer the shorter barrel. It is handier in and out of the truck and on the ranch. Remember, the paper numbers that are pushed by the ammo manufacturers are, too often, not...

I had the Speed Six, the SP-101 and the Smith 940 in 9mm at various times over the years. I no longer have any and, unlike some, I don't even miss them. Nothing wrong with the cartridge. I just prefer to not mix operating platforms. Swamper

Mr. Camp mirrors my own views, all be they more fully and eloquently expressed. $250 for such a gun remains a value and, as 351 W said, with the right loads it is NOTHING to "sneer at." Over the years, several friends and I have bought a few and had nothing but excellent results. Dialogue with...

Worked for a good friend of mine. His guide was drunk and he was checking on a ram he took down. Squeels galore, a few tusk fille charges, a few barks from the .357 and problem solved. Well, there may of been some Fruit of the Looms moment but..., he and the .357 got it done. Swamper

JT, That is a beautiful gun and congratulations. Years ago, I also owned one but was none too impressed with the accuracy. Like too many others, it became trading fodder. Enjoy your new gun. Swamper

The ACOG is sold. Excellent transaction. Swamper

PAshooter, Check my return PM to you. Swamper

Anteken, I went the path of the carry handle version, relying on the realities (or, at least, as ALWAYS in my case) of Murphy's law. I figured despite their toughness, I would screw it up and still have plan B available with the twist of a finger screw. PAshooter, Thanks for being so...

It is the Model TA01: 4x32 Trijicon ACOG® with Red Crosshair Full Illumination. For more information, including specs, visit their site at http://www.trijicon.com/user/parts/products1.cfm?partid=139 Also, this model attaches to the carry handle. Swamper

Model, Did you change your mind or did I run you off? Swamper

Model, I will think about it. I am talking to a couple of others as well. Would you go $700? Swamper

Gentlemen, Thanks for the input and perspective. I think I may just take a chance first in the forum for a FTF. If not, Gunbroker is certainly an option. Swamper

Gentlemen, I have a like new Bushmaster AR-15 (16-inch pencil barrel, regular front sight, flat top with A-2 peeps carry handle, and collapsible stock) with a TA01 4x32 Trijicon ACOG (Red Crosshair Full Illumination). What do you think this is worth on the open market? Any opinions are...

If they can't take your guns, they'll take the next best thing. Remember how the Obamanation said that he wasn't going to take your guns? Well, it seems that his minions and allies in the anti-gun world have no problem with taking your ammo! The bill that is being pushed in 18 states...

RC, Thanks for the kind words. Yep, I think we are both in the same boat. Too often I see a beauty and wonder what would I do if I caught her. :rolleyes: Swamper
