I would second the mention of Academy sports - Though they only have the carbine. Another gun I would strongly suggest is the Savage Mako. I had he opportunity to shoot it and I liked it a lot - Though I do love my 10/22.
-
I looked at a 10/22 at wally world that was the synthetic stock with SS barrel. I ended up not buying it because it was 'damaged' This damage consisted of a wide scrape down the barrel that appeared to have pulled off paint. It appeared to be SS under the paint. My guess on this is that the new receivers aren't SS they are aluminum or something and are painted a silverish color and the barrel was being painted to match the receiver.

tungsten, as a programmer I know this kinda stuff can be a lot of work so I'm sure this must be a labor of love for you. A lot of time and energy and very little reward. If you ever need any development help let me know.

Pirate, I hadn't noticed that it wasn't showing that and when I did, it seemed rather silly that it wasn't provided out of the box. I did some rooting around in the PHP code and joined a few extra tables from the vBulletin database to make it work.
Thanks for the suggestion.
...Great...

tungsten - On a regular post it has the 'where' field included in the panel for the posters information. This is pretty important because most of these trades / sales are FTF and people are accustomed to not placing where they are located in the advertisement. I noticed there is a user information section in the new classified format but it doesn't have this information. Could we get that added?
Thanks

BTW: That was not supposed to be a dis on I.T.... I can't do their job, and wouldn't enjoy their job. They get stuck dealing with a lot of stupid people... And I have no idea how to fix "Laptop with windows 2000, It beeps 3 times whenever I try to turn it on then flashes red and turns itself back off"... Our IT guy at work is great. And even programmers can be stupid users... We destroy a computer weekly.. and he just fixes them without making saying a word... They should give that guy a raise.

We have a name for people like you in the sales department... we call you ......... I.T.
Not to be a stickler but I.T. and Computer Programmer are VERY different.. One of them only needs a highschool degree and a certification to competently manage a network of computers and kep the office running. The other (half of our programmers do myself included) has a Master's degree and can write software for anything be it HD TVs, Jet engines, The software that tests Jet Engines, Your Operating System (Windows), The software that allows your network card to work, etc... Most Software Developers Don't like to be called I.T. ... But I'm not overreacting ;-)

I work as a programmer - This means I never have to talk to most of the stupid people in our company. We have a few good Managers that interface with all the stupid. I was thinking about going to law school, then I remembered there would be no one running interference for me in law school - no one keeping all the stupid at bay.

I was up at Stones River on Sunday and shot someones Savage Mark II Mako and now I am jealous of the amazing trigger on this thing. So, any advice on attempting a trigger job on my 10/22? I would appreciate any suggestions for a particular kit. Or, if someone is in Nashville and does their own trigger work cheap send me a PM and we might be able to work something out.
-
My mag will hold it fine, but the feeding is an issue. Haven't done any work to the mag (or trigger and hammer) yet, but that day will come too. ... BTW, pulled one round out of the box with a giant dent in the side, that got a couple of head shakes/"hmmph"s.
Yeah - feeding is the problem.. I was just being careless with words.

My condolences to GA fans. I'm wondering how many top 10 teams have to lose for my Buckeyes to make it to the championship (And probably lose again
). -
I'll take that winchester ammo. Clarky and I recently learned the magazine for the 597 won't hold the winchester ammo - about a hair to long - My 10/22 will eat it all day though.
-
I suspect clarky and I will be out that way playing with the new 10/22 I picked up at the gun show in Smyrna.
-
How about now? Less blue, more earth tones.
Perfect
-
Perhaps we could alter the color of the actual forums from blue to something that matches the background and banner better?
-
One thing - when clarky's 597 jammed I think it was because we tried it using the Winchester .22 ammo which was just a hair longer than the Remington.22 ammo.

Can the ammo be with the gun if it is all in the trunk? Or can he put the ammo in the glovebox and put the guns in the trunk?
-
Thanks - He plans to leave them all in the trunk unloaded. Any other advice on avoiding trouble with the law when traveling with a few firearms between states would also be helpful.
-
Ok - So I see a lot of talk about people buying lowers.. And you can find some uppers here... etc. I don't understand what exactly these two pieces are. The upper, it seems, contains the barrel and the receiver for the AR. The lower is just the stock? Which pieces can be bought and ordered without an FFL? Which can't?

My father is going to be driving down to visit from Ohio in a couple of weeks and he plans on bringing a few guns to take to the range with us and do some shooting. Is there any particular laws or rules he should be aware of when carrying these across state lines? Can he just leave them all in the trunk? He is brining - M1 Carbine, Mosin, 20g Shotty, SW EV40, Colt Army special .32-20...
-
The other side of that lower needs to say
Queen Anne's Revenge

Anyone know if there is going to be a gunshow in the Nashville area in the enxt couple weeks?
This seems to indicate there will be one the 26-28th - But I haven't seen any mention of it on here. http://www.gunshows-usa.com/rkshows.htm
