Same...mines on the way from Rural King...it was discounted off MSRP so i said hell why not!

Chuck didnt see your original post...thanks for combining!!

You sir obviously do not understand the fine nuances of perfection...thats like saying every beautiful woman looks the same.

hence the parentheses ;-D

For all my Glock Haters and Lovers check out this historically "accurate" "beauty" btw a little birdie told me Rural King has them on sale through their email deals today ;-D https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2020/08/31/glock-p80/

Have you all tried Old Tub yet? If not you need to not much out there like it. No chill or charcoal filtering and bottled at 100 proof. For $20 she’s a steal.

When ARM's start getting snapped up i'll be cashing out my stock positions your already seeing all these people advertising $0 down which is insane. Right now is literally the worst time to build ever....OSB, 2x4's, 2x6's, deck boards...almost everything has doubled or worse. My builder said his average cost to build a 400,000 house is over $30,000 more then it was last year....when good deck boards are only $3 less than TREX you know things have gotten stupid. One of my new neighbors that bought land in my subdivision said she can't find a contractor that can quote her 2800sq ft for less than $500,000 and stay in the neighborhood by laws....thats almost $100,000 higher than 2 years ago for my neck of the woods.

Both are great I personally prefer the BCM gunfighter mod 4.0 (medium size) but either will serve the purpose.

So im behind the times was it really a poachers rifle? how did you come about it?

Very nice Redbreast 12 is my favorite Irish Whiskey...never gotten the privilege of trying the 15! You did something right if he still likes ya enough to get you a Fathers Day present!!

I will say I have had a LOT of CC pistols and the only one I have ever had that was pleasant enough to range shoot and also daily carry has been my Sig P365...my 2nd favorite carry is my HK USP45compact but it dwarfes the sig and isn't really comfortable for summer wear. I highly recommend the Sig P365 (non XL)...its shockingly comfortable to practice with.

I envy the fact you shoot that much I probably don’t have 2000 rds on any of my guns.

In the meantime here’s my 10” AOW for inspiration...

I didn't know about West Virginia that's where my Fiance's family lives...good to know if I ever found myself without my permit for some odd reason.

I see the 2nd amendment will not infringe part of the arguement but honestly I think this isn’t the best idea our state has ever had...of course me already having a lifetime permit might be a bit biased that other people don’t even have to pass a dumbass exam or shoot a blimp at 7 meters like I did.

I've looked over that ad 3 times now...I don't see why in the hell people are shelling out that much for a used one when the new ones are readily available for $500ish??? People really do just get a desire to "win the bid"...god bless gunbroker.

Bahahaha ...whose this gun dealer...I guess I better slap a $50 hand guard on mine it’s worth a fortune lmao https://www.gunbroker.com/item/869171239

Your not 308 but your well within 200lb killing range with a 7.62x39 at 200yds...so that would bend the rules a smidge but definitely work. As far as my small frame 308 They don’t make a stripped version like mine these days I can weigh it later but it’s under 7.5lbs for sure now I’m curious how much lol.

My adams arms small frame piston driven 308 AR is right at 7.5lbs with the magpul furniture. Or you can go with a KS47 which depending on barrel length is well under 7lbs depending on what you hang on it and will easily reach out and kill at 200yds. Also again I realize we are talking about a pre-1990 concept that's why I said "progress happens". DaveTN I understand the application driven aspect that's why there are situations where a 22 makes the most sense ;-D

I think the scout is very cool and great for an individual BOB but in all practicality semi-auto is just a lot better for a multitude of reasons...first and foremost you find yourself fired on first a bolt action is about the last thing I would want if my position is known. Modern day semi-autos have proven to be extremely reliable and if you want to keep the weight down a KS47/Mutant in 7.62x39 will give you the extra power at 200yds without the weight of a 308 sized frame. Or a piston driven small frame 308 will do the trick if it must be 7.62x51 or better and still under 7ish lbs. not saying he was wrong then but progress happens.

Lol man just become a benefactor and list it for sale ...it’s very obvious what your doing here. I think it’s like $35 for 6 months. Who knows maybe you can turn a buck off several builds if your so inclined but please do it the right way. Also as to value an unknown person building one in Knoxville isn’t going to bring as much as an established company...I personally wouldn’t buy a home built AK unless I knew the person who built it had some actual gunsmith credentials (like Xtriggerman on here).

That plastic hand guard is awful if I do one it’ll be the red lion or Midwest...but honestly I’m keeping it light and I don’t see me getting any extra function outta a hand guard ..if I want sexy and heavy I’ll just pick up my Troy AR lol.

Recently installed this AAC Blackout Muzzlebrake/Flash Hider got a lil Noir going...probably gonna just throw a sling on it be done I actually don’t mind the lack of front hand guard as I find it comfortable from the mag well (not the magazine I know better lol)

Might help to know what brand and grain is the ammo and what brand is the mag you used. My experience with quality and my Frankenstein ARs has been they are all quite reliable. So a dud from Ruger would surprise me.

It’s actually not so bad if you take off the useless front rail...and btw...Sportsmans Warehouse has them for only $4200
