H&H, back then it was USPS delivery to the mailbox. NO stinkin' FFL's needed. I remember buying mossberg .22's from the army/CMP for $8.75 I still have a couple of them. There was a wholesaler in NYC that handguns from everywhere, I think RG's were 5 dollars, and H&R and Iver johnsons were ...

If you are taking rifle, it really can depend on the rifle itself. You have to put the range time in to find out what load will perform well in your firearm. I used to not beleive this, but after a couple of rifles that were very "finicky" I am a true beleiver in this. Handguns, in my opin...
I have purchased used at the store that seems to be the one being eluded to in this posting. I am confident that I got a good deal in this case. While often I find their used selection to be overpriced, I often find many vendors used selections to be overpriced. That said, my gun cabinets can attest...
Just wondering if anyone knows of a good spot within an hour of the twin cities (preferably south of the metro) for hunting late season rabbits. Wanted to take my kids out one last time before the season ends. I have hit a few of the WMAs in the past with no luck but will probably try a couple again...
My sediments exactly. I use a .25-06 for deer. I can place it just about anywhere I want. It can reach out to as far as I am comfortable shooting. And with modern bullets it performs well without much meat damage. By the way, is that .50 BMG story for real? What gunsmith would do that for a guy? Sho...
I agree with whats been said. Unfortunatly it is a buyer or seller beware economy and one has to do their homework to get the most value. With the plethera of info available on the web anyone can buy and sell competently.
What is the difference between now and waaay back then? NOTHING Well now with Steroid use rampant among the Cape Buffalo population, don't you think we need something better than the old .375 H&H to counter act them. I mean they just aren't the same creature as back durning the Safari hay days!...
Just am courious on others thoughts about the several new big game loads that have hit the market in the last couple of years. Ones that are top of mind for me are .375 Ruger, .416 Ruger, and .370 Sako but I think the same topic could apply to ones like .338 Ruger compact magnum and .338 Federal to ...
This is gun related how? Are these scinerios that you can site actuall cases of or is this just your own way of generalizing the world? I have a son with ADHD I have relality from the failers of 1957 ability to look past child abuse I come to this forum to talk guns. I stay out of the OFF COLOR beca...
Thank you to all three of you. It is as I thought but wanted to get some confirmation before I trust a seller. He has over 100 positive feedback in the last 6 months so he seems to do quite a bit of business and has been a member since 2001 so I guess it is a sure a bet as any.
