  1. I hope that they actually have the Zombie targets in stock for this. The past few weeks, they haven't had any and haven't been able to tell me when they will get any.
  2. Still have some stuff to buy and Im waiting on a few things to come in but at least it looks like a rifle now.
  3. Well it got here today. Not exactly what I wanted but but my rail will have to wait. Here are a couple of pics I snapped at lunch.
  4. Aim surplus has one cent shipping alot of the time.
  5. The ruger is system (from my understanding) is however unique in that it can close off the gas system completely to allow single shot firing. Check out gunblast.com's review or the downrange.tv review for some good information on it.
  6. Stephen, The steel cabinets that I have seen at Bass Pro seem to run about the same price as the ones that I have seen at Sam's, Dick's, Tommy Bronson's, etc. I am thinking about running up to Gander Mountain this weekend and will let you know if I see something cheap up there.
  7. Yeah I didn't know. I know that Range is usually cheaper for actual purchases but I've never checked their transfer fees.
  8. Have you asked range USA?
  9. I wouldn't worry too much about your first handgun being used. Rightwinger has a great deal going. Plus, most of the people I know don't keep their first gun very long becaus they always find something else to try. Just my two cents.
  10. Turn it in the other direction so that it doesn't unscrew.
  11. I haven't strapped on my pack since going to Maine in 2001. I might be interested. Great idea.
  12. That only applies to immigrants was the way I understood it.
  13. Are you doing that on Monday?
  14. So when can I come play? haha. I'm glad you asked this because I hope to be picking up a Mark II this weekend and have already been looking at the TacSol uppers. I will go detachable but only because I have several .22's that I shoot frequently.
  15. If you want to sell it, where are you located? Ever since I bought mine, all of my friends are looking for them.
  16. Definitely better than in the past. By the way. To the OP, I was looking for an AR upper and tried to talk the guy down on the bushmaster a3 he had. He had 599 on it and wouldnt take less than 580. I walked over to the table one aisle over and talked that guy down to 650 on a complete bushmaster ar15. I didnt want, need or have enough to buy the complete rifle but I wanted to see what the difference would be. It was ridiculous. That is why I hate gun shows in Memphis.

    Ruger SR22

    Then Ruger should lower the cost of this rifle. With other more AR like rifles out now at a lower price point, I feel that Ruger is going to have a hard time selling these. The more I look at it, that looks like its just a basic nordic kit. Off the top of my head, you can piece this gun together for around the same price. The Nordic kit is 225 10/22 is 197 Hogue pistol grip is 20 Hogue Free float rail is 75 Stock of your choice is ~ 75 That comes out to around 590. If you went this way, you could then swap back forth between a standard 10/22 carbine and the "SR-22." To me, its just not worth it. I have always liked the Nordic kit but if its going to cost the same, I would just rather do it myself.

    Ruger SR22

    Looks nice. Nordic has been making a nice stock kit for a while but this is definitely a new kit. The MSRP is a little higher than what I would pay but if I could get one for around 400 then I would definitely get one after I get an M&P15-22. A big turn off for a lot of people is going to be that this isn't more like an AR. The reason a lot of people are buying these .22 EBR's is for training and thats just not happening with this rifle.
  19. If you can settle for a 16ish inch barrel, CMMG has bargin bin rifles for 599.95. Check those out
  20. Plus an 800 dollar rifle is still more than 400 bucks and you have to switch back and forth. Noone will ever be able to convince me to ditch my want of a M&P15-22. I am just waiting on the threaded barrel version to come out and to see if they are going to release a Magpul edition.
  21. Mailed mine off today!
  22. Because I love .22. It is by far, my favorite caliber to shoot. When .223 drops to 2 cents per shot, I will change my mind but until then... EDIT: Not to mention that the S&W is about half the cost of a real AR.
  23. As a huge .22 fan, I agree. Go pickup a smith & wesson M&P15-22.
  24. Thanks guys. From the information here and elsewhere, I decided that I just dont have enough money yet to get my upper. I am going to go ahead and order one with a free float YHM rail. I decided to get chrome lining because its not that expensive and seems like it could be cheap insurance. 1:9 will be fine for me since I don't plan on shooting anything heavy. Ill probably stick to 55gr stuff most of the time. Thanks again for all the help! Ill be sure to update later this month when I actually order my upper.
  25. I put that in the field that says position on the first page but is Title asking for the same thing?
