They're not in stock. Mine's showing up next week after a 3 month wait. DSA doesn't charge your card until it ships. If you want one, you ought to order it now, with a 3-4 month wait in mind.

Yeah, Freedom Group has done great things with Marlin. (Ahem, cough, cough, eccchhh........):barf:

Decide for yourself... http://thetruthaboutguns.com/2010/11/robert-farago/obama-picks-chicago-anti-gun-guy-andrew-traver-to-head-atf/ http://www.nraila.org/News/Read/NewsReleases.aspx?ID=14485

You left out the Winchester 1300. Other than that, I'd say you pretty much covered all the American pumps. I've seen a few of the old Stevens 67's in shorter configurations, but don't think I'd waste much time on one.

Sorry you don't like them. I just mentioned the deal because these (at least the Classics) were routinely going for $1500-$1600. If someone wants one, it's the best deal I've seen to date. P.S. Here's what you said about the "direct impingement" AR last year. Get your story straight...

Check out their home page. Sounds like a good deal to me. http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/index.php

Go to: www.NRAvalidate.org If you put in your NRA ID#, it will give you the option of upgrading your membership (to Patron/Endowmwnt/etc.) at a HUGE discount price, and it will also give you the opportunity to sign up "family members" for Life Memberships for $300 each or annual...

The Stevens 200 has a 3-position safety. The "button" is not quite as big as the one on the Savage branded rifles, so it's slightly harder to manipulate (esp. when wearing gloves). The "locked bolt" that a 3-position safety offers, I feel, is a big advantage when it gets dark out (and you...

I want: 1) A re-design of the 22/45. It should have removeable grip panels and a safety lever interchangeable with the replacements currently available for 1911's. 2) A mannlicher-stocked 96/44, preferably one available in stainless/laminate. 3) Ruger needs a pump shotgun (hey, they...

The Market Hall Show in Dallas is always a really good show. Should take you 3-4 hours if you're really looking at what's on the tables and not just blowing through for a deal on a Glock. As for Fort Worth, you need to know that there are two different shows held in the same venue (Amon...

Will 3 in 1 work?? Sure, it'll work. However, there's WAY better options available these days. For $3.49, I can go and get 4 oz. of Break-Free CLP from the local Academy store. For $5.99, I can get 4 oz. of Corrosion-X from the local gun shop. Either one of these provides VERY good corrosion...

If I was your buddy, I'd be thinking about: 1) Hog Farm 2) Auto Salvage Yard 3) Low Income Apartments

Avoid the Remington 770. Certainly not in the same league as the Marlin or Savage. Do a web search and you'll see what I mean.

I should mention another gun I just ran across recently. The TC Venture. I didn't look real close, but it's supposed to have a 1 MOA guarantee. I saw them today, at Cabela's, for $419. Might be another option for you....... approx. $400(or less) rifles: Stevens 200 Marlin XL7 and XS7...

Here's a long thread about the Mossberg: http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/2797707/1 and this: http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/2621471/1 You can decide whether you want to believe it or not. The Marlin has been...
