    Just curious, is that a wood stock? The BL22 was my first rifle, stop have it 25+ years later, mine is an early 70s as well. I've only seen nylon stocks on these. 

    Interesting! I've only seen wood stocks on BL's. Didn't realize they made a synthetic stock version. Like a Nylon 66?

  2. Project gun, but could be made pretty again with a lot of work. I've only fired it once with shorts and long rifle to test for function. Worked fine and the shorts were fun, so quiet.

    The good: If I ran the serial number correctly, looks like it was manufactured in 1952. It has the fatter forearm than the later models. It works, the walnut has some nice grain, and it's got potential.

    The bad: Looks like some idiot used the forearm for a hammer. The butt plate is not correct, a Fajen, not a Marlin. It will need a total re-blue and stock finish. It has to holes drilled and tapped in the receiver, which I imagine was for a side mount.

    $400 no haggle, if you look at the big gun sites, you know what a pretty one is bringing.

  3. I believe the biggest thing we should be concerned about is Chinese hackers getting into our infrastructure and shutting down the power and water to major cities. Our government is a bit dumb in that all major municipalitie's infrastructure is ran by computers. In the old days, maybe 30+ years ago, switch and pumping stations were much more mechanical and separate from one another (had a buddy who worked for a water plant and told me a lot).

    Maybe its time to get a mechanical backup in place for such an event.

  4. Sad news indeed. I liked his music and loved what he did for our soldiers in all the USO tours he did. Most people don't realize how much he did for entertaining out troops. I got to see it first hand during my stint in Army Public Affairs. Got to meet him, very cordial guy, and he loved crappie fishing too. RIP Toby Keith.

  5. 1978 Winchester 70 XTR .264 Win Mag with Leupold 3x9 AO and two boxes of factory 140 gr ammo. This was an estate rifle of a good friend of mine. It was used to hunt for more than 40 years and shows the battle scars of the great outdoors to prove it. Not a safe queen, but a great rifle to continue the hunt.

    $700    This one's gone.

    Is this rifle still available? I live in Smyrna. THanks

    Sorry, no. This got pulled back into the herd.

    It was buried so deep on this forum, I just forgot to pull it. Glad I did, took a deer with it two weeks ago. Fourth deer with a .35, I'm really growing fond of this old caliber. Thumps 'em hard.

  7. Ready for Steel Challenge competition or fun plinking. Tippmann M4 with TEN magazines ($25 each), and C-More rail red dot. I used it once in steel challenge and then switched to rimfire pistol class. More to my liking. It's a nice running .22 AR.

    $1000 in the set-up, will take $700 for all of it. Still have factory box and comes with a nice canvas case.

    SOLD

  8. Very nice 2004 Ruger Blackhawk .357 with 4 5/8" barrel. Barely a cylinder turn wear present on this 20-year-old gun. Doubt it's been fired much. I have not fired it at all.

    $650 ...  $600  GONE
