Did I get a good deal?

Postby syvmn on Fri Aug 30, 2013 9:36 pm

I just picked up a Savage 111 .270 w/ a 3-9x40 scope for $179.99. To me this seemed like a deal I could not pass on since I was in the market for a whitetail gun. I have no idea what brand scope it is, I cant seem to find a single identifying mark on it.

The only thing that I can tell wrong about the rifle is a small chunk that is torn out of the soft butt material. Its maybe a quarter in size.

I'm going to take it out shooting in a day or two to do the ultimate test.

Did I do good?

Sounds like a great deal. If you have an accutrigger - you just robbed somebody blind 8-)
Did you just buy that beautiful firearm, or are you trying to sell that piece of crap?

It will have a small silver blade that protrudes from the face of the trigger that must be depressed with the trigger to release the firing pin.

No worries still a killer deal. If everything works as it should.

Yeah mines just a plain old trigger. I'm used to a plain trigger and my wife has shot a gun only a few times. I think we will be just fine. It looked like a steal @ $179. We will take it out tomorrow and shoot some groups.

I would say you got a good deal. Nice rifle!

Yes you did. BUT, don't judge your enjoyment be others opinions. Sooner or later, "someone" always seems to have gotten or seen a better deal somewhere else, TALK is CHEAP.. Enjoy your rifle!
