YIKES !!!!!!
STAPLING THE AMMO CARRIER TO THE BUTT STOCK ?????
I like my leverguns FARRR to much to do that.
I suggest installing a sling stud, poking a hole through the elastic ammo carrier, and reattaching the sling to the stud.
Let the swivel stud hold the carrier !!!
Actually I have numerous "TRUCK" guns.
In no particular order:
1. Remington m742 in .30/06 w/3x-9x scope. Bought for $100. Needed extensive clean up, dissembly and reassembly with locktite. Now shoots 3-shot groups to 1" at 100yds. Much superior to SKS! (has Cabelas steel 10shot magazine, w/ 150gr Rem Cor-lokts loaded over 48.5gr H4895 "its favorite load".)
2. Marlin 336C in .35Remington. My favorite! Cost? $0.00 (Long story, don't ask!) Has 3x-9x scope too. Shoots 1.5" at 100yds with 200gr Cor-lokt at 2,250fps (H4895 too!). Kills deer and pigs DRT (dead right there!)
3. Glenfield (Marlin) m30, .30wcf. Has Williams 5D rear sight and shoots 5-shots ~1" at 50yds with 160gr FNGC at 2,150fps. Sitting in back of P/U as I "type". Rifle was "expensive" at $150.00. Has 9rds in butt carrier, 4 in "4-shot" 1/2-length magazine. NO STAPLES !!!!
4. Remington m870 12ga., w/20" slug barrel w/rifle-sights. Speaks for itself! Cost me $125.00 plus $20 to Brownells for replacement bolt carrier. Someone had dumped it at a pawn shop after they couldn't get gun put back together after shooting it once or twice. Came with 28"bbl w/rem-chokes. Already had 18" and 20" bbls on hand. Loaded with 1oz slugs, 5 "000" buck-shot loads in elastic butt carrier on sling-swivel (NO STAPLES !!!!)
5. Remington m7 in .223. When I think I may be taking an extened stroll away from the vehicle and may want something that'll handle almost any situation. Has Leupold 2.5-8x Vari-X III, will shoot 5-shots to 1/2" at 100yds. "MIDGET VARMINT RIFLE !!!" Prefers Hornady 60gr S.Pt.s over H4198. Killed deer with neck shot while it faced me in '01. One shot, three entry and three exit wounds !!!! (neck, shoulder, ham !). DRT needless to say!
6. Ruger Security-6, 4" Stainless Steel. Police trade-in I bought for $125.00. Need I say more?! I do all my .357mag shooting with this gun. Essentially indestructable! Always rides between the passenger seat and transmission hump on my Jeep. Just as rough-n-tough as the vehicle! More dependable too!
ECT., Ect., ect.........................
Come to think of it, most all my guns are "TRUCK" guns.
Now, which one do I carry this week ?????????????????
