    Buying first rifle, 22lr, list for consideration

    Alright, went and fired the Remington. As expected extremely short throw (Only other gun is a Mossberg 500) But a very accurate little gun (Duh 22lr with like 20+ inch barrel) Remington Pro's Manual Action, to help me learn setup and sighting. Something different than most folks at the...

    Buying first rifle, 22lr, list for consideration

    Thanks Happy Bob! From that info it looks like it is a May 1975 gun, no too shabby. I also not have the Marlin in hand, pretty nice, not near as "toyish" as I had expected, maybe it is the wooden stock that adds the heft. Real test tomorrow, going with an experienced shooter to a local...

    Buying first rifle, 22lr, list for consideration

    Ok, I have the remington in hand, does not look like the BDL version, I had believed it to be a few years old, now it looks more like 1970's gun. Magnet test indicates an aluminum receiver, and I verified it is rifled so not a Smooth Bore. Any way to easily look up the serial number? Thanks...

    Thanks for the input guys, the Remington is getting loaned to me for some range time, and I will borrow that Marlin as well. Might be like Apples and Oranges, but should be fun shooting them both. Everything I read on Rimfirecentral the 572 is a Love or Hate thing, lots and lots of folks...

    What happens when one gets bored with a long brown gun

    If the finish was trashed, more power to you. I can understand matching your truck color, and taste aside, it looks like a beautiful finish! Imagine that, the Mad Ogre with a green gun!

    Kim du Toit has another "What if"

    I did some quick comparisions online, and for my picks at least, they were pretty fair prices, I did notice their 300$ sks, and their 995$ "Russian 91/30 Sniper 7.62x54R". Definetly have some that they are proud of!

    Kim du Toit has another "What if"
