    Actually he is looking to sell it. He has an idea what it’s worth, and would be open to offers.

    Help with story of a friends revolver.

    Hey everyone, been a long time since I’ve started a thread here. I have a coworker that has some family firearms and is looking for information on at least one of them. He has a Smith and Wesson model 28-2 chambered in 44 Special. Has a Volquartsen barrel on it. Nice revolver, if anyone has...

    I need help with purchase of an M1 Carbine.

    Thanks for the input guys. You've confirmed my feelings on the price. Nothing special to look for that might make this one better than another then? I'll see if I can talk the dealer down. Thanks, Clint

    I did check for import marks, and there were none. It does have the bayonet lug, and updated safety.

    I need help with purchase of an M1 Carbine.

    One of my local dealers has a Underwood M1 Carbine for sale. It's priced at $1300.00 which seems a bit high to me, but the thing looks brand new. Great condition, has sling, cleaning kit, and one mag, dated 7-43, rifling looks great. What are some things I should look for on this carbine? Thanks...

    Flaig's Ace mauser sporter quality?

    Hi, congrats on the purchase of your Flaig's rifle. I can't answer your questions, but I also have a (.243) Flaig's rifle. Mine has a FN action on it. I haven't been able to shoot it yet since some dingbat before me screwed up the scope rings and some of the screws, I will have it repaired here...

    Ever heard of a custom rifle with "DEERS" stamped on the barrel?

    Lol, yeah I figured either small shop build or some redneck built it, and thought it would be funny to put deers on the barrel. Looks like a "Flaig's" rifle, but doesn't say it on the rifle anywhere. Thanks guys.

    Ever heard of a custom rifle with "DEERS" stamped on the barrel?

    Hi guys, I've found a rifle that has a GEW 98 Mauser action, chambered in 220 Swift, and has DEERS stamped on the left side of the barrel, also has a really nice wood stock. Can anyone tell me anything about this rifle? Thanks, Clint

    What is the point of a 9mm carbine??

    I'd agree with post #12 100%. Of course I'm the guy that can't understand where the .556 fits in, lol! :D

    So I ended up with a FLAIG'S rifle!

    Ok guys so I finally found a set of nice rings at a local gun show. I had to pony up fifty bucks for them, but I was able to match them up, and got to pick the best one from four sets. I'll get out and shoot it as soon as I get a chance. Just wanted to give you all an update.
