It's time to let this one go to a new loving home. I originally had this rifle built for me because I wanted to try long-range shooting, but I got distracted by service rifle matches with open sights and never did shoot this one that much. So I'm hoping there's someone else looking for it. This is a Remington 700 with 24" Krieger heavy barrel, McMillan forest camo stock. It's built in the USMC M40A1 pattern, with work done by Mike Lau at Texas Brigade Armory. You can visit his website and read full specs on this rifle at Rifles. No scope included; I shot it with a Leupold 12x varmint scope, which I'm keeping. T Also included with the rifle is a Starlight heavy-duty gun case. These were once billed as the toughest gun cases made, but the company went out of business in about 2012. New guns now come with Doskocil, Gun Guard, or Pelican cases. This case is as tough as the day it was made. Check eBay and you'll see astounding prices for these things. This is certainly a gun that will have a small pool of interested buyers, but I decided that TGO would be the best place to offer it for sale first because I know there are some leftys here. If I can't find a buyer in a reasonable time, I'll either consign it with one of the local gun shops or else perhaps try selling it on Gunbroker, although since the gun and case weight 33.6 pounds, shipping costs would be horrendous. Better to sell it to a nice TN citizen. I want $2400 for the gun and case. I'll consider trades or partial trades. Since this is my only gun in this caliber, and I have a great stockpile of ammo, I'd be interested in another .308 or 7.62 rifle, but in a sporter weight. A Ruger SFAR would be great. I'm also interested in Colt or Colt-pattern (USFA, Cimarron, Taylor, Uberti, etc.) single action revolvers in .38 or .357 with short barrels. I always like .44 Special revolvers (no five-shot models, please). Other trade offers cheerfully considered, but I don't need any more AR-style rifles except the Ruger SFAR, and no more plastic pistols except the HK VP9 or the CC9. I live in Chattanooga but will drive a reasonable distance for a deal. Feel free to ask questions or to request more photos. Thanks for looking, Whisper

Price lowered, trade options changed. Thanks for looking. -
SOLD For sale to a loving home -- 2024 Staccato C 9mm. This model has the compact grip (15-round magazines) and DLC barrel. It's in like-new condition, with everything that came in the original gun case (including hang tags, test target). Also comes with Dawson Precision mount for Trijicon RMR-pattern red dot (that mount is what's currently on the gun); I still have the original sight as well, plus spare fiber optic rods for the Dawson Precision front sight. The gun came with two magazines; after a three-month wait, I was finally able to acquire two more (total four). One of them is still unused. Also included is a Tenicor AIWB holster with both clips and loops for belt attachment. Feel free to ask questions. Thanks for looking. Cheers, Whisper

Great googly moogly. What a lovely gun. Wish I had that much cash available. -

Whisper replied to michealknight's topic in Firearms Classifieds
Thanks for sharing this. The Taylor 700AWE isn't stainless; it's heat-treated white steel. That's a good price, but I'm looking for a stainless version. It will be a great gun for some lucky buyer. Cheers, Whisper -

Whisper replied to michealknight's topic in Firearms Classifieds
Outstanding. I'm interested. Apparently Taylor's has two engraved stainless 1873s; one with better quality engraving. Can you tell me the catalog number of this one or post a photo of the end of the box? Thanks, Whisper -

Beautiful. Doesn't really look like nickel plating. Is it stainless? Thanks, Whisper -

The really good news here is that it looks like the dam has broken and the universally despised lock is going to be washed away in the flood. God is good. Cheers, Whisper

MSRP is $969 for the Model 10. No telling what the actual price will be in your gun shop.

Whisper replied to I am Groot!'s topic in Firearms Classifieds
I concur. It brings a tear to my eye every time I see this gun still advertised. I tried to trade for it, but I didn't have anything the owner wanted, and I just don't have the cash it would take to buy it outright. Someone here should buy this to help out both the owner and other single action lovers like me who are tormented to see this lovely gun available. You could consider it a public service.... Cheers, Whisper -
The tumor being gone seems like progress. Prayers sent.

Agreed. And more accurate than can be easily explained.
