Uhmmm.... It's still Thursday, the 20th here. But thanks for the heads up anyway!

Google and ye shall find.

Thanks for the heads up! If I win, I'll take you with me. Do you know all of the standard retriever commands, or am I going to have to teach you?

Cabelas charges way more special handling charges than places like Midway and BassPro do. In my area, I'd have to drive about an hour to get to a decent gun shop. Gander Mtn. and BP are more like 2 hours +. I buy quite a bit of ammo online. Wally World's selection is limited and there just aren't any local gunshops around here anymore.

Carlsons and Briley are good tubes.

Appreciating.

No.

I heard Mesa Tactical was working on an updated bayonet for the M4 [ 07-17-2006, 09:21 PM: Message edited by: tucker301 ]

Never heard of it, but I'm interested in hearing feedback as well. I alos asked the guys on SavageShooters for feedback on it. If it works as described, it may be a great solution for the much-maligned M2000.

Favoring the Savage, I would bet the price difference on a five shot group, head to head, from factory rifles. [ 07-16-2006, 02:14 PM: Message edited by: tucker301 ]

Savage rifle are hands down the most accurate mass-produced rifles in the world - at any price.

Didn't work for me either.

The .243 is a very diverse caliber. Using 70 grain boat tail hollow points, he can confidently shoot varmints at medium ranges. Switching to a 90 or 100 grain soft point or partition bullet, he can take whitetail deer anywhere in the Eastern US. The .270 is going to be more a big game rifle, capable of taking whitetail, mule deer, and even elk with good shot placement. The .270 is going to deliver quite a kick compared to the .243. Starting a youngster off with more gun that he's ready for can be very damaging to his shooting skills and to his overall take on hunting. Remington has a new caliber that fits nicely between the .243 and .270. It's the .260, and just about everyone who reviews it loves it. Right now, it's available in just a few bullet weights, but I'd expect that to change as the cartridge becomes more widely used. Also consider the .260 Remington. Recoil is similar to the .243, but it hits more like a .270 on the other end. Remington developed the cartridge, but the rifle can be made by anyone. Savage rifle are hands down the most accurate mass-produced rifles in the world - at any price. They are "modular" in design. You can change stocks, bolt heads, and barrels, and therfore calibers, quite easily in a home workshop, as long as you stay within certain parameters of action and magazine lengths. Stevens rifles use the same action as the Savages do. Many savvy gun enthusiasts are buying the $250 Stevens 200 just to get the action, then adding the aftermarket stock, barrell, and trigger of their choice; and still coming out under the cost of a factory Remington, Winchester, or Browning.

8-40? 8-40 does not indicate a length at all, just the diameter and thread count. #8 (.164" diameter) 40 threads per inch If the screws are too long, cut them to a shorter length.

Replied to your PM.

Wow! Would this be a bad time to mention that Benelli sent me mine for free and it took about a month?

Somebody's gettin' a Woodrow! eeeeeasy there, fella

What?

We can make this work.

I like the lightweight and portability of detached bipods like Stoney Point. But if you want a good attached bipod, then take a look at Versa-pod.

Form 1234K, notarized and in triplicate.

Try these VA dealers Gander Mountain - Fredericksburg (540) 548-1330 Greentop Sporting Goods - Richmond (Glen Allen, VA) (804) 550-2188 Degoff's Inc - Mechanicsville, VA (804) 746-0273 Dance's Sporting Goods - Colonial Heights (804) 526-8399 These are all fairly close to Richmond.

Yes, the FFL stuff is easy both ways. The buyer supplies me with a signed copy of his dealer's FFL along with his check. I simply ship the weapon to his dealer and he registers the gun to the buyer. If I receive a gun, I just get my dealer to provide a copy of his FFL.

Here's how it will look.
