Word around the net is they offered it yesterday evening but for a very limited time....anybody know the truth? I see where people are saying they got the deal. Really sorry I missed it, I would have bought one for my grandsons Christmas....probably one for another person now that I think...

I DO NOT WANT TO EVER HAVE TO SHOOT ANYONE. That being said, your choice will and does work all over the world. Personally, if I have to shoot someone inside my home, I am going to hit them with something a little more substantial.

There we go, thanks guys.

Hey all, does anyone know of a manufacturer who makes a peep sight that clamps on the standard Ruger scope base? Looking for one in line with the old Sako peeps that allow one to remove a scope and put a peep on in the field. With my old standby Sako .30-06 I can accomplish that feat in under...

Thanks rc.

According to a buddy of mine over in Germany, it is what we would refer to as an 8mm-06. No clue if he is correct in your case, some things get lost in translation.

Hey R.C. concerning the 5 MM Rem. topic, have you ever messed around with a rifle that had the Craig conversion installed? Would not do it to a rifle myself, but I do know where there is one to be had for not a lot of money. All I know about it I have read on the internet, but I have shot the...

Seems to me that I looked just hard enough...and as they say in your neck of the woods, "Bless your heart". Thanks, though.

Is anyone currently producing any? Aguila, I think, was loading it down in Mexico a few years back, but I don't know if they are still turning it out. Any info would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys. I spent a couple of hours on the .gov sites doing research, and talked to a dealer who assures me he knows the ins and outs concerning the issue. Cool little old guns, I have wanted one for ages and hope to see it happen once the B.S. is properly wrapped in red tape!

Mods...if I have this in the wrong spot kindly reassign it. Does anyone know and can you point me to information regarding the legality of purchasing or owning a Marbles Game Getter with the original (16 1/2) inch bbl lengths? Would such a gun fall under C&R regulations or SBR? What a...

Thank you guys. Good info, have not made a decision yet but I expect I will end up spending more than I need to. Seems to happen a lot when I play with guns...

Specifically for shooting coyotes and like sized animals out to 150 yards or so, does anyone have experience with some of the middle priced units? I had the opportunity to try an ATN Night Arrow unit. With the IR unit installed we had no trouble breaking clay pigeons at 100 yards with a plain...

Man Paul, I wish we were not across the country from one another. Unique I have in spades.

Interesting that things are showing up regionally or by company...the market at work I suppose. Up here I have noticed some more IMR numbers and lots more projectiles on the shelves, but none of the popular RL powders. I have looked at Scheels, Big R, Big Bear and Cabelas as well as numerous...
