10-Ring

It's fun and well crafted for what it is. I'd always wanted an O/U and happened upon this one for a good price. I wouldn't say it's comparable to a $2k+ O/U but it's nice for what it is and would be ideal for someone shooting clay strictly recreationally. The absolute best advice I can give concerning shotguns though is to fit your shotgun to yourself. Anyone will shoot better with a $200 shotgun fitted to them than a $5000 shotgun that isn't.

So many options at so many price points. Couple of suggestions Yildiz O/U $500ish from Academy. Franchi Affinity ~$900. I own both. Bought the Franchi when I went to buy a Benelli Super Black Eagle. The Franchi was half the price and after spending 30 minutes handling both, I couldn't justify the Benelli. I've shot the Franchi side by side with Benelli and they are on the same level. One of my Benelli owning buddy's even wanted to trade me.

I've owned several brands of ATVs. I currently own a Polaris RZR and it will be the last Polaris I ever own. It always needs something despite rigorous maintenance and easy use. Everything on a Polaris is hard to get to. I've talked to owners of just about everything and done mountains of research. A Honda Pioneer will be my next ride. I'd stay far away from CFmoto and anything else Chinese as well.

As the title states. Looking in middle Tennessee. Closer to Lebanon the better. I also get towards Sparta often and I'm making a trip to Atlanta next week, so anything along 24 down to Chattanooga would be good. Just thought I'd see if anyone had one they wanted to get rid of before I go buy one new.

I use a penetrating oil like PB blaster to clean up stuff like that, it really cuts the grime. Clean up any rust with steel wool.

I don't know, but I grant your that the designer of both cheated off of a known C student in high school.

The sentiment that everyone needs to carry is great and all, but the fact is that some people are more likely to harm themselves or others before they use a gun to defend themselves. A certain female in my life no longer carries after her lost gun was found loose in a purse, no holster, loose with several pens rolling around. Said she had too much going on to be concerned about keeping up with a gun. Come to think of it I can't count on both hands the people I know who don't have any business carrying a gun.

I may get whipped for saying this, but I think Henry is one of the most over rated brands out there. Everyone I've handled felt cheap to me and was a substitute for something better. That said, I carried a hunting buddy's Henry in 44 mag, and my Marlin 45-70 guide gun out of a hollow at the same time. (He said if I carried his gun, he would drag out the pig we shot, sounded like a deal to me.) The Henry was much lighter than my Marlin.

I'd be a buyer in the $400 range if it was a good shooter. It's ugly, and over priced. In that price range I'm going to be buying a Smith.

I worked in retail loss prevention for over 5 years. I absolutely did some dumb things in that time. Some corporation's belongings that they will write off if stolen are not worth your own legal problems. The details from the article are lacking, but I this very well may have been a bad shoot. https://www.wsmv.com/2023/04/13/police-investigating-self-defense-claim-shooting-pregnant-alleged-shoplifter/

5 dead, 6 wounded, shooter has been killed.

Stripers and rockfish are one and the same.

Sounds more like a striper than a hybrid.

When I heated with wood the blower on my stove would kick on at a certain temperature. I was always trying to get that blower to cut on faster than before.

Recently bought one from Academy, $250 OTD. It's a great shotgun for the money.

I would venture that the media would produce a lot of hype concerning the number of rounds of ammunition that most members of this forum own. There is nothing crazy about a recreational shooter having 5,000 rounds of .22 on hand at any given time, but the media would paint a totally different picture.

That MSRP though...

There is a small number of people that I will not do business with on this forum. The list just grew by one.

I get it, but if the seller is being like that I don't want to deal with them anyway.

I don't NEED to buy or sell anything. I only deal with established TGO members with good feedback ratings. Exceptions can be made if I get a good vibe on someone. I've had exceptionally good luck here.

I've had both. 100% crawl space. Or preferably as @derf suggested a basement. I don't ever recall having issues with frozen pipes. I had a neighbor on a slab whose septic line collapsed in about near the middle of the house requiring major renovation to repair. After seeing that, replacing a little bit of subfloor seems like child's play.

This would be an excellent opportunity for interested vendors to start accepting cryptocurrency.

A former co-worker lived by this strategy. He told me that I shouldn't accept a job making more money because people who earned more were more likely to loose their job during tough economic times.

Price?
