Thank you everyone for your input! This gives me a lot of good reference material to start with as I figure out how I want to proceed. The information available around here is fantastic as always, so many thanks!
I will try and make further posts on this thread as things come together with...
I get what you mean, for sure. But that's a problem with ARs in general anyway, so I'm kind of resigned to that. However, that's not to say that I would be opposed to starting with a good base rifle that was already put together to about 85-90% of what I want and modifying it a little from...
Hey everyone!
Long time, no see. Since I graduated college it has been a wild ride. But I'm starting to make my way in the world- I have a full time job working at an indoor gun range and gun shop and things (knock on wood) look stable for the next few years while I pay bills, lose some...
Savage-Anschutz Model 141 Sporter, .22lr with unknown Bushnell fixed-power scope. One of the most accurate rifles in the family cabinet and, with good ammo, also incredibly slick and fast. Sometimes it feels like cheating, shooting this rifle....
Delford- I did a little looking online prior to posting this, and what you say is true; it seems to be a good price! I just wanted to check in with you all before I committed to it, just in case I missed anything.

Hey all,
So, a friend that I work with is looking to sell a shotgun that his grandfather left behind that, though he appreciates its sentimental quality, is not of interest to him because he does not shoot or have any use for guns in general.
The gun in question is a 1949 manufactured...
I like it! It looks like something out of one of my favorite video games that was set in the post-apocalyptic world: a functioning, well-crafted firearm made from various intact components and bits. It has a certain utilitarian charm to it- the gray parkerizing is a nice touch! Good work. :)...
Notice I said, "let go." Not "got away," "missed," etc. Let go.
Most of my hunting is the pursuit of the 4-legged brown pests known here in Wisconsin as Whitetails. Sure, I do my fair share of small game, upland and turkey, but our cloven-hoofed meals on legs are my most frequent prey...
...had $300 dollars, I would have bought the gun on the spot, cheap scope (which I would have replaced with quality irons) and cost of 8mm Mauser be d*mned. I've seen wood stocks on new production factory rifles that I would rather burn as firewood than consider for this so, again, it is not a...
Well, the title says it all- in short, I want to hear what you all think about the following:
A lot of modern rifles have no cosmetic appeal. None. Specifically I am thinking of bolt rifles.
I was exploring options for a general-purpose, iron-sighted bolt gun that I am referring to as...
Well...
Last deer season I shot a doe a little further back than I intended to... She approached me from my left and presented me with an almost perfect broadside, slightly quartering to me. Problem was, she was moving from left to right across my shooting lane at a leisurely pace. I...
You know, it's funny this got brought up- I think about this all the time!
Here at Beloit, some of the faculty refer to History courses that have a military/technological/strategic component as 'guns and ammo' courses. And they're not being polite when they say it. I even get a few odd...
Want me to be honest?
Go to college full time. That pretty much puts the kibosh, financially and in terms of time, on any extensive shooting habit. Even though for a person my age I am fortunate to have decent paying, steady (and secure) employment, I cannot afford even slightly larger...
Sometimes I get the feeling that these bayonets were conceived in much the same way that the GAU-8 Avenger was; that much how the A-10 Warthog was built around the gun, these rifles were made for the bayonet. So in short, those aren't rifles with bayonets on them, those are bayonets with a...
Midwest- thanks for the link to the other thread, I appreciate it. I must not have seen it when I was perusing earlier.
To the Mods- maybe the threads should be merged? I don't want to take up bandwith.
Gun Wielding- I agree with the protest on principle, I just think that maybe there...
Hey all,
I'm more than a little concerned about this- people I know who are not the most pro-gun people I've ever met- are jumping on this like a trampoline. Supposedly the proposed protest calls for the marches to carry their firearms locked and loaded, and the "manifesto" of the group...
