    Armslist no longer free.....

    I wonder if finding a better way to organize the Buy/sell thread in THR might make it easier to navigate and more useful. It would be nice to be able to search by state at least. This is one of the largest general firearms forums online isn’t it? It seems like it might be an opportunity. You...

    Surplus .32acp pistol

    FYI, I got the LOK thin grips on my 81BB and it made a world of difference in the way it feels in my hands. It’s not that much thinner on paper but I really noticed it. Maybe if I didn’t have little girly hands I would have been okay with the stock grips, but such is life :). I also like the...

    Walmart rifle closeouts

    I got mine sighted in at 50 yards a couple weeks ago but ran out of time to move out to 100. If weather permits I’ll go to the range tomorrow after work and see what it does at 100. Were you shooting 55 grain? From what I understand the 1-12 twist doesn’t usually perform well with heavier...

    Walmart rifle closeouts

    Bought my second rifle from Walmart this afternoon, found a Rossi 22/410 combo gun for $35. My son is left handed (Got that from me) and we think left eye dominant. He will be old enough to get started shooting soon, so a break action will be perfect for a first rifle. I missed the Savage deals...

    Popularity of Remington 700?

    Now I feel like I overpaid for my 700 in .223, got it a few weeks back for $199 with the no name scope. But when I went back to pick it up (they had a 5 day wait period regardless of CCW) everything was gone so I guess I just have to be happy that I got one at all. Still awesome deal for $99, I...

    Popularity of Remington 700?

    I’m hoping that’s true with the one I got. I guess if it’s not a shooter I could sell if and make some money since I got it so cheap. But I’m hoping I don’t need to. What weight bullets have you found to work well? I know it’s a 1-12 twist so once I get dies and pick a rifle powder I’m...

    Popularity of Remington 700?

    As far as finding the deals, I read about brickseek.com on reddit or one of the gun forums and they seem to be the best place to find out who has the deals. The site is not super easy to navigate but they show which Walmart’s have them marked down. Just search “Savage Axis” and find a model you...

    Popularity of Remington 700?

    Yeah, unless you are already planning on replacing everything it’s usually cheaper to get what you want to start with, or close. Good call.

    Popularity of Remington 700?

    That’s what I was seeing when I looked it up so I bought it right then. Glad I did because when I picked it up yesterday all the clearance rifles were gone. I didn’t see it at my Walmart but I read on here that some stores also had the Henry Big boys in .357 for $399. Must be clearing out old...

    Popularity of Remington 700?

    Yeah I was just there to check for ammo, but when I saw the clearance stickers I had took. My wife said it could be an early birthday present and I didn’t give her a chance to change her mine. They also had the Axis (non-accutrigger) in .243 for $124 which was tempting but I’ve always thought...

    Popularity of Remington 700?

    Not sure if you will still find any in stock but I picked up a 700 ADL in .223 at Walmart last Friday (actually I only bought it, they made me wait 5 days because Walmart is Walmart). But I took it home yesterday. It was on sale for $199 and I wanted something to plink with low recoil. For...

    Walmart rifle closeouts

    Just bought a 700 ADL in .223 on Friday. I walked over to check ammo but when I saw the clearance tags I had to check out the rifles. Was going to go with a .243 Axis for $124 but when I saw the 700 for $199 I went with that. Would have liked both but my wife was kind enough to give me the...

    Slimmer grips for a Beretta Model 81 (Cheetah series)?

    I really like the LOK grips on my 81. I wear Medium gloves and the stock grips were not bad, but slightly too large. I really like the look of the wood grips but everything I read said they were actually wider. So I picked up the LOK thin grips and I’m really happy with it. It’s not a lot...
