    Wilson Combat KZ 45 - thoughts?

    Had one a while back. Great pistol if you are comfortable with the blocky grip and resale value is generally a a good bit lower compared to the classics. Not an issue if you keep it. But it is a Wilson!!! Enjoy.

    Winchester Model 88 Price question.

    Unless it is beater, and if it is pre-64, it is a steal. No pre-64s around here for less than 600, including mine :)

    what to oil the bolt spring on the ak47 with?

    On the AK, spit (or pee if frozen) will make it work as good as any oil. That's why it is my bad day go to gun. But I pamper mine with Mobil 1 syn. Runs good!

    Taco Mac in GA

    The Ga law is finally on our side. I ignore the sign, conceal well and enjoy the wings. Same goes for the local Dollar Theater in Fayetteville. I am much more concerned about the walk from the parking lot than inside the establishments.

    Upgraded to 30-06,

    I have heard a lot of interesting debates for and against other calibers, but I have never heard a convincing debate against the good 'ole 06. It is the best all around centerfire rifle round ever made.

    I no longer want a S&W 686

    Just keep searching and hold your money until you are sure. That's what I did. 19-3 2.5 K frame Nickle. I don't think it can be improved on for personal carry. This is actually the twin brother that I sold. I kept the nice one :)

    I am kinda bummed that I am missing out on the gun buying panic

    No EBR. Well not American made, but a nice M1A Scout purchased last year should be quite capable. Got a few more than I need as they seem to be safer investment than the markets or cash savings. Will likely continue to focus on ammo for the most part. Really need a second safe as well :rolleyes:

    Must have versions of an M1A?

    Scout. Resale is better also if you should be so inclined one day.

    cant decide on a cartridge

    30-06. Never been a good argument against it. You can find high end stuff or cheap military grade fodder. Next would be the .308 for the same reasons. Those are pretty much all I use for hunting or paper punching, be it from my bolt actions, Garand or M1A.

    What is the Best Way to Sell My Guns?Internet or Gun Show?

    If I buy a gun from a dealer or FFL transfer, and if I sell it, I sell it through an FFL so that the official paper trail does not end with me. If I bought it private with no paperwork, I am open to selling it privately. I had my FFL tell me that the Feds came by his shop to pull the papers on...

    Should Retailers/Wholesalers Use THRs Classifieds?

    No retailers period. Possibly an exception for used guns only, but still on a separate forum. You can always find a new gun retailer if you need one. Most already have a web site of their own. Make THR private citizens only.

    Hunting rifle: fast follow ups, light, 30-06?

    I think you will have to compromise on one of your points. Probably the action if you want 30-06 and take your chances with the bear. :scrutiny: , or the weight if you want semi-auto. I would get the Remington 7600 Pump 30-06. I have handled one and it was NOT a hard pump. Me thinks the 760...

    accu-trigger = ccrapu-trigger

    Ash, I often hunt with a 10FP .308 Short Action with the 20" barrel. It is a little lighter than the 110FP, but still definetly a tree stand gun. Heavy for stalking, but so accurate (with that sweet accu-trigger :D ), that it's seems almost unfair to the creature in scope. Still worth the...

    An SKS "Paratrooper?"

    I have one of the "rancher" models. Nice reliable little truck or closet rifle. Loads quickly with a stripper, handy length, and very reliable. Loads of fun to shoot. Not much collector value. Not rare, but a little less common than the standard length variations. The do generally get about a...

    who makes most accurate off the shelf AR15 .223

    Just my opinion, but I think often it can be rifle to rifle differences even in the same brand and setup. No matter how good the machinery, no two rifles will be precisely alike.

    "So far so good?" So far... GOOD ENOUGH!

    accu-trigger = ccrapu-trigger

    I hear ya, and do understand where you are coming from. Heck, if both were free I would take the Coopers too! Basic economics. I may not be the brightest light on the tree, but I am not the dimmest either!
