So heres the deal....
My buddie just got his income taxes...like 4,000.00 or something. We go to the gun store cause hes looking for a cheap, 9mm carbine (sub-2000) or something like it.
So we are looking around...(how many stories on this board start like this) I see a prestine M1 Garand in 30-06 on sale for 650.00 appearantly the owner has it on consignment
I have learned quite a bit from this site (tons actually) and have wanted one for awhile now. Historical,Functional,Robust,Efficient,Best Iron sites and of course *PING*
So I pick it up and of course fall in love. This is the first time I have held one and everything I have heard so far has been true. Ah the wood and ooo the sites. Well anyway I dont have the cash, but am considering using my Rem 870 MM as a partial trade and then coughing up the rest. Its not like I have money to burn and the woman dont like the idea but still gave me the "go ahead do whatever you want"(you know the tone guys) and Im seriously considering it.
* - I love my 870MM it was exactly what I wanted when I got it. It would be hard to part w/ it and I initially planned to keep it forever. Its my only current shotgun.
*- The only rifle I currently have is a Marlin 336.
I wasn't really in the market for a new gun right now. Is the 650 price tag on this rifle not as good of a price as I believed it to be.
Im just not sure..
