Location is Murfreesboro. No trades, come and get it. Bought in 2019, traveled to Vegas for a match and back. It’s been stored since. The top layer of foam that is supposed to be cut is trash- I’d recommend something less dense like the pull and pluck stuff. The other layers of foam are fine. I ended up just putting the rifle in a lightweight bag inside the case. Product Info $180…$150

for-sale Sold Loaded Mossberg 590A1 Vang Comp 12 gauge
asu174 posted a topic in Firearms Classifieds
Relisting. I sold the heavy Surefire light and swapped it out for Magpul furniture. Much better ergonomics. Location is near Murfreesboro. Please PM me with questions. I don’t respond to “call me” posts/messages. Please be a TN resident and willing to flash ID when we meet. No trades- trying to get the collection down to a specific number. Bought this from another member in December. I rationalized it because the Vang Comp work is worth $800 alone, (that’s a hyperlink) not to mention the 590A1 is no longer being produced. Two range trips, about 50 rounds through it, shoots tight groups, more than reasonable recoil for 00 buck. Vang Comp claims 12” pie plate accuracy at 25 yards with buck. I didn’t get to test that claim, but it does pattern absurdly tight. This was apparently sold as new in this configuration, so it’s a “factory” Vang Comp gun. Original owner said us was a long-time low-use safe queen and I believe he paid around $1600 for it. Upgrades: Vang Comp fully tuned action Vang Comp Stock Vang Comp "back bore barrel process" (modifies to a very tight internal choke without tubes- lengthens the forcing cone) + forward barrel porting for recoil control Front hooded tactical night sight (looks like it takes any AR sight post) Rear ghost ring sight Rear Picatinny optic rail Large dome head safety button Stainless steel tube follower Heavy duty tube spring All steel mag “breacher” (or melee weapon- it’s really sharp) extension tube. 6+1 capacity with Wolf 00, but I suspect it’s 7+1 with slightly shorter shells. It’s sooo close Magpul Furniture Velcro side saddle with 2 saddles $880 FIRM, you come to me (Live rounds not included) That’s lint/dust on the ports in the third picture. No wear. -
I work a corporate job at a Nashville-based company overseeing a program for a large wireless carrier. I’ve been working here for 13+ years and moved to Tennessee from AZ 3 years ago for this particular role. Moving here was pointless since I decided to work from home in early ‘19, but do prefer TN over AZ.

Agree on all points, however that’s not what that quack article says- not even close.

You spreading this complete bull#### is the problem…not the “jabbed”.

Too tempting. I’d have the gun for the mags in a week and I’d lose my mind not not selling off ammo I can’t shoot. Related to mags, one weird thing I do is justify a duplicate pistol purchase by pretending I’m paying for mags I would have bought for the other gun, anyhow. So a $425 Blue Label Glock with 3 mags is really 3 $25 mags I would have bought and a new $350 Glock. I don’t need a Glock, but a $350 Gen 5 Glock is a no-brainer...and I already have new mags for it.
-
Agree. I miss the days of new $14.99 OEM. One of the first mags I bought was a NFML Glock “hi-cap” mag for $80 during the AWB in ‘03. I never want to be stuck in that situation again, so I stock up. Harder to do at $45 a pop.

I sold all of my 509s earlier in the year. I’m also a Glock guy. Here’s what I didn’t like: Trigger. The factory FN trigger shoe is SLIPPERY. The factory trigger pull isn’t terrible, but my bony fingers always ended up at the bottom of the trigger guard and constantly adjusting. The Apex kit fixed that. Installation was a pain with that one pin. I actually snapped one and had to buy a $3 part with $8 shipping Mag prices- I think they are $40+ for mags. Recoil. Whenever I decide to get rid of a pistol series, I do a side by side comparison with a shot clock. I don’t remember the splits, but they weren’t great compared to Glock or CZ, however better than Sig (dumped those too). I think bore offset plays a role, but can’t confirm. With the Tactical, that dot was bouncing all over the place. I can run a red dot Glock as fast as I can pull the trigger. Other than that, the 509 was 100% reliable and my Tactical ran great with and without a comp. If you’re not fanatical about other platforms, you’ll be fine.

Nomad doesn’t pin/weld, unfortunately. Any other suggestions?
-
I’ve used ADCO in the past. Would prefer to just do this locally, however, I don’t want it to look like crap. I hate an ugly pin/weld job. Just looking to pin a Surefire SOCOM flash hider to a 14.5” barrel. Any suggestions? Would love Murfreesboro, but can shoot over 840 and go up 65.
-
I ended up abandoning this 22LR idea until I decide what I want to do and how often I want to do it. I suspect this ends with me shooting groups at 25 yards, so I probably should have just kept the TacSol X-Ring that I never shot and sold here. Will revisit at a later time.

Nashville area FFLs that accept incoming from private parties?
asu174 replied to asu174's topic in General Chat
Used Royal Range. Their FFL is posted on the site. You just provide them the guy’s name that’s selling it to you and he sends a DL copy. Super easy. Thanks for the help. Benelli M1 Super 90 on the way. -

Oh wow, that’s my FFL. And it even says it on their site now. This is great. Thanks! FYI, Music City’s site says they do not allow private transfers: https://www.musiccitypawn.com/firearm-transfers Purchasing Company Name * Please list the name of the company for which you are ordering the firearm. NOTE: Music City Pawn will only facilitate transfers of online purchases from an FFL dealer. We do not accept online sales transfers from individuals without an FFL. -
Nashville area FFLs that accept incoming from private parties?
asu174 posted a topic in General Chat
Not sure if this is the right forum... Just looking for recommendations on any FFLs that accept incoming transfers from private parties (that include a DL copy). The few that I’ve talked to say they only accept incoming from another FFL. Nashville area, but include Franklin, etc I hate calling around and figured I’d try here first. -
Cheap 22NRL gun. I’m not cut out for door #1 and #2. Punching paper off a bipod with rear rest. Not sloppy semi auto plinking. Right now, my interest is in the CZ 457 Varmint Precision Trainer...which is probably junk compared to that “cheap” NRL22 gun. But even that CZ is $1K. Add scope and accessories, I’m really not that far away from $2K.
-
Great questions. Spent some time on Rimfire Central and those dudes go DEEP in this. I thought I was interested in competition until reading over there. I’m realizing I’m not willing to take something that seriously right now. Pivoting. For the ONLY 22LR you could own for target shooting, plinking, and maybe some casual competition, what is the best bolt action option in that “higher end” category? Is that $1K? I do appreciate the offer for the call and I may take you up on it, but I think this idea just got much simpler and cheaper based on the reactions.
-
Not sure are all, which is why I’m asking. I’ve been looking at $2K-3K base rifles (no optic) this morning with $1K-$2K optics, which is probably overkill. These guys are shooting FAR for a 22LR. I probably shouldn’t have sold my TacSol X-Ring without giving it a fair shot, but I really don’t like 10/22s that much for some reason.
-
Fair point. I’d like the option to put my can on it, but if it’s going to just blow back carbon into a highly accurized barrel, then I can pass on that. I saw pics of some high end rifles with cans and (not knowing rimfire) figured there was some purpose to it.
-
What do you get? Looking for bolt action for bench shooting and must include glass I can probably go a little over that budget if needed. Looking at potentially shooting Rimfire matches. Do you buy new or used? Any recommendations on forums/websites/places to buy? I know almost nothing about rimfire. I do have two Surefire 22LR cans, so threaded barrel is important. Any advice is appreciated.
