Firearm BS thread

Thinking instead of trying to buy a Tikka CTR in 6.5 straight up just buying a lite version. CTR is 815ish and the lite is 570. Then buy someones pulloff CTR barrel. The stock, DBM and magazine all get pulled off the CTR anyway so no point in paying extra for them.

Sometimes the bottom metal and magazine can go for around $100-150 though.

 

I think he means was it Military issue.. they don’t like it when military equipment makes it to civilians (no I don’t mean clothes and packs)

 

I seent it happen before

 

Just ordered Del-ton Sierra 316 and M&P 15-22 with optics.

 

Lots of counterfeit optics out there too, at least when it comes to EoTecs but I think Aimpoint has a problem with it also. EoTech will run the serial number for you and tell you if its legit or not, Aimpoint probaley does the same.

 

Stolen. Like from Uncle Sam. If you see an acog with the serial scratched off back away slowly.

 

Looking for grips for my Sig I have noticed something. Coolhand grips and VZ grips both seem to be selling the exact same grips. Same patterns and everything. But VZ's are a lot more expensive. So I guess, who is making these grips? Or is one company stealing the others idea?

 

Would you all have some suggestions for legit or reputable buy/sell/trade firearm forums? Gunbroker among others are the most common I see, but have shit reviews.

 

Are you looking to buy or sell?

 

Mostly buy.

 

gun broker is usually decent. You just need to have your own FFL dealer/gunshop you deal with. Guns America is another one but Its about the same as Gunbroker IMO. Looks like you are in WA. Look up Spokane gun trader. You usually can find some good deals but they are more local to the east side of the state for obvious reasons.

 

Gotcha. I appreciate the the input.

 

Thought I would end a productive day with a little pew pew at local indoor range. Well, you would have thought I forgot how to shoot and would have laughed at me flinching shooting my 10mm! Took 3-4 mags to get in the groove! WTF? Finished off well with my carry XDSC with my reloads. I think this just means I need more range time!

 

Not to nitpick, but I gave Uncle Sam enough last year to buy a couple dozen Aimpoints.

 

Aimpoint doesn’t wanna get on uncle sams bad side.

 

And I paid enough in taxes, I shouldn’t have to dodge potholes in my corolla

 

I use Armslist quite a bit.
Always had good results there.

 

Found that last night. Nice that you can search per your area.

 

I just signed up and looking for older Marlin 336's in 30-30
