    dsarms 300 aac blackout upper

    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.

    Help me identify the best riot pumps

    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.

    Sig 556 $971 delivered at Budsgunshop

    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...

    Stevens 200 safety?

    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...

    Ruger countdown here we go again

    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...

    Texas gun show question

    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...

    Is 3 in oil any good for firearms?

    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...

    .243 or .270 for my first deer rifle? (I'm not a kid)

    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.

    .243 or .270 for my first deer rifle? (I'm not a kid)

    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...

    .243 or .270 for my first deer rifle? (I'm not a kid)

    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...

    Rumor Mill: Smith to phase out the Internal Lock?

    Taurus has a lock on their guns, and it doesn't screw up the looks/lines of the gun like S&W's does. You also find few, if any, complaints about it malfunctioning like the S&W. Ruger has a lock, too. It is hidden under the grips and is only exposed if you put a hole in the grip. Frankly...

    .243 or .270 for my first deer rifle? (I'm not a kid)

    Please, do yourself a favor and DON'T buy the Mossberg!! Academy also carries the Marlin XS-7 in .243 (without scope) for $289. It's a much better gun for the money than the Mossberg. For $150 or less, you can get a perfectly good scope (Nikon Pro-Staff, Weaver V9) or get one of the...

    Want to move to Texas

    Also consider applying with school districts. Most school districts of any size need at least one or two IT guys, and it's a good way to get a job in a smaller town (that may be too small to have much in the way of private industry/business). DFW and Houston are areas to be avoided. Do...

    Win M70 vs CZ550 vs Kimber 8400

    Back when CZ's were cheaper, this would have been an easy choice. However, the prices have gone up in the last year or two and are right up there with the Hawkeye/Winchester/etc. I've looked at several of the new Win M70's and am quite impressed. I've seen them going for as low as $699 here...

    Got a chuckle from Sportsman's Guide Catalog - Counter Sniper Scopes

    Yeah, but does S&B's warranty cover battle and bomb damage and bullet impacts??? Does the Counter Sniper warranty only apply to the original owner??? I mean, what if I die from a bomb blast AND my scope is damaged??? Will my heirs be able to get my Counter Sniper scope serviced for free???
