“Not here in The Peoples Republic of CT. Most are over MSRP. Been that way for years.”

I consider CT Number #2 in America’s domestic enemy terrorist-enabling states.

My best friend and his wife, who for close to 40 years proudly declared themselves “independent” and were very politically quiet for at least the last 16 years, live in CT and have gone nutso freako posting daily hate and scorn for America since Nov. 9.

I’m wonderin’ what I’ll have to pay for the S&W 586 L-Comp now.

It appears to be the finest revolver made in the world today.

Or, even the 586 with 4in barrel.

I was considering selling my Stag Arms AR-15 on Gunbroker.com, but I would probably lose $250 on it between the recent price drops and paying an FFL to ship it out.

Luv it.

ran 4000 rounds through it before cleaning to what would happen.

Nothing and it was a waste of time taking it down to trigger and stock.

Totally clean and no failures..

There IS an ammo glut...

Sure, I have a hard time replacing Krag 30-40 and Martini Henry .454 cartridges.

Thanks for your review. The 7.62x51 makes the 5.56 seem like a little old firecracker compared to an 7.62 Cherry Bomb. Socom 16, I hope is in my future.

I haven’t bought a gun in weeks. Looks like I’m about due. Hmm...something in a Sako, perhaps. I don’t a .300 WinMag. Yet. Maybe a guide gun of some sort. The Ruger looks nice. Or maybe something in the crew-served category. For moles. Yeah, moles, that’s the ticket...

...it's worth every penny to me.

In the end, that's what matters.

My motto? Buy high and sell low.

You and I share a similar financial strategy.
