I found a good one a few years ago on a local classifieds site and I made a deal for it. I really enjoy having it in my collection - it is one that everyone wants to handle and check out.
Well, I'm guessing that we know some of the same people. I have lived in Arizona for almost 25 years and so I'm far removed from east central Illinois, but I still have family there. I grew up in Annapolis. I'll bet you've had a cheeseburger at Moonshine, huh?
Very cool info. I have a hex 91/30 that is surprisingly accurate. I can shoot it offhand with remarkable consistency and accuracy. The sight radius helps a lot, I'm sure, but the the rifle just plain shoots!
Here is my rig. I've had my TC since 1995 and have added barrels and grips / forends / stocks / scopes over the years.
Top - .44mag
.223
.22
.410
7-30 Waters
.45-70 Govt.
I bought the long barrel version of the .500 Mag S&W (8 3/8") and believe that I made the right choice. If I had a lot more money I'd get a shorter barrel version as well but since I can only have one I think the longer barrel is the way to go.
I really need to spend some more time evaluating my goals for 2016. Off the top of my head this is what I think:
Find 22lr ammo
Find someone to repair the crack on my IHC M1 Garand stock
Add a few magazines for my 22/45 and a find a few of the Pmags for Glocks to try out
Get my hands on a...
I've sold a few recently and felt pretty good about it too. Sometimes I feel the need to evaluate my collection and so I recently decided that I had several surplus rifles that had seen very little use in the last several years and very little prospect of use in the future and so after thinking...
I'm interested in this thread as well. I'm drawn to the KSG though i have not handled one. I'm a bit confused as to the issues related to the 1st incarnation of this gun and the Gen2 update. What was changed? Is it still on Gen 2 or has there been further changes?
It really looks cool and...
I like the shadow box. I have all of that stuff and have been thinking about a way to display them; I might borrow some ideas from your display if you don't mind.
Of what I have in the safe my 10 would be:
Ruger GP100 4" .357
Ruger Scout Rifle .308
Colt 6940 AR15 5.56
Springfield M1 Garand 30.06
Ruger Red Label 12 gauge
Ruger 22/45 Lite .22lr
T/C Contender frame and barrel in 7x30 Waters
Ruger SR1911 .45acp
Ruger LCP .380
Remington 582 .22 rifle
I think...
I traded a couple of my surplus rifles toward a Ruger 22/45 Lite in red. It is going to be a great addition to my pistol collection and my daughters will get a lot more range use out of it than they would have the old Turk Mauser!
