    We're talking about private transactions and what we like to buy in them ;)

    I doubt he did it to get you upset. That was just an added bonus.

    I've always wanted a stainless Rossi R92 in .357.(lever action rifle) I saw one a couple of years ago for $500. I haven't seen many since.

    I want the carbine, but you get the idea.

    I have my eye on a double-stack 1911 in 10mm.
    Hopefully I can get there before someone else does...

    Different tools for different jobs, but then I suppose many of those ignorant of guns figure a .22 cal is adequate and human for harvesting deer.

    It does not belong on a gun control forum

    Sure it does. We're talking about the 2nd amendment generally and particularly about private sales and what we like to buy in private sales. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't belong dear. You don't have to follow the thread if you don't want to see it. Conversely, if one of you would just ask the question we all know you're dying to ask we could talk about whatever it is that's burning a hole in your pocket.

    My apologies. That said, there is no other part of this board that is more appropriate for this thread. It's always been a place for gun owners to talk about guns as well as a place to talk about gun control. If you don't like the subject of the thread, don't participate.

    Especially in that the mods refuse to give us such an area.

    Maybe we need a gun rights forum.

    Having a varying assortment of firearms that make use of a varying assortment of calibers insures that one is more likely to find at least some compatible ammunition during an ammunition shortage, which was in place during the full eight years of the administration of Barack Obama.

    Oh don't get me wrong - I envy your ease of access to firearms. I have this recurring dream where I'm an armed-and-dangerous Dirty Harry figure clearing the mean streets of bottom-feeders in my own town. 'You feeling lucky, Punk? Go ahead, make my day!' :machinegun: :mrgreen:

    Ok then, not as easy as all that, as a Retired fellow, if I shoot someone, a Criminal trying to Rob me or worse, even if it justified, too much paperwork, it is not access to firearms, in my case, there are plenty of requirements to retain ones status.....

    o
    Not likely to find one outside an auction, then expect 20,000 to six figures; they are art as much as rare fire arms.

    An 8wt rod will never work when a 12wt is needed.

    Oh! Gun control laws. The title of the forum does not specify, it just says "Gun Control". Those of us who shoot know very well that controlling a gun is being able to hit what you aim at. I thought it was about any kind of gun control.
