    there are important questions posed here Johnal...we need wisdom from a sage..

    I know what murphy's law is, but what is the name of the law that says, when a pill drops on the floor, all natural laws are suspended, and it will either bounce 4' in the air, and land on the couch where you did not hear it, or roll to the EXACT geographical center of the hardest to reach space in the house , inaccessible ,without a moving crew to lift the safe up

    I think that's just a corollary of Murphy's Law but unless you are really fast the dog will beat you to it.



    looking for something on the kitchen floor will draw every dog in the house......to help of course.

    if no dog is around, I just yell: cleanup on aisle one, ...the beagle knows and comes running

    LOS ANGELES — Walter Becker, the guitarist, bassist and co-founder of the 1970s rock group Steely Dan, which sold more than 40 million albums and produced such hit singles as “Reelin’ In the Years,” “Rikki Don’t Lose that Number” and “Deacon Blues” has died. He was 67.

    So we know it's a tough market...
    However, the nonsense "it's going back in the safe" threat is so lame. IT. NEVER. LEFT. And clearly, nobody cares...

    No offense to any current or past imaginary gun-hokey-pokey players, but come on! Lol

    Man! I should've bought it.

    To be honest, the Mini-14 has been peaking my interest lately. I wouldn't do a 6-8 though.

    I do have quite a few I need to sell but here is useless and not sure anywhere else is better. I was going to tell the wife to list an estate sale, That I had died and make everyone come over to "shop", but then you know me I would have to pipe in and say something! So other than a couple I have up already I am not putting anything else up. I do have fun guns and lots of supplies to sell so people can call or ask for a private sale

    I do this the other comments are right on and funny or stupid whichever you prefer to take the ads.

    Shiite . . . I have all this stuff and nobody to leave it to.
    What I was thinking of doing - - -> Having an auction in my garage. Put out some tables,lay my guns out for "viewing",then start the auction.
    Possibly several of us could get together and do this . . . OR . . . I could just list them all here for penny's on the dollar and save myself alot of trouble.
    What should I list my Ruger #1H chambered in 416Rigby for ?? --- SAWMAN

    If I were old like y'all I wouldn't even worry about it, just let the wife's new boyfriend have them, or she can sell them in the "Thank GOD he's GONE Yard Sale!"

    That threat also typically comes from clowns who want full retail for a used gun plus retail for accessories. Usually Glocks bought on blue label also. No rational forethought whatsoever.

    And I believe that I have come to realize that the plummeting prices on most all AR chamberings have been passed on to the rest of the gun market. That is unless you wan't some kind of speciality gun.
    I bet that I have "sold" 15 AR's to friends in the last couple of months that did not realize how cheap they really were.
    But wait . . . . . I'm gonna build me a AR with the parts that I like . . . then when it comes time for me to sell it,i'm gonna try to convince you that these are the parts that YOU like. - -> RIGHT !! < - - --- SAWMAN
