If you're injured you better learn how to load that iron with one hand or you're useless.
I can. Left-handed, too.
In a cave with two holes the wind is bidirectional. Humanity has a 50 / 50 shot.
If you're stuck on getting a bolt action, that's probably a good choice.
I am not purchasing a new rifle. I have placed an order for a suppressor. I expect to receive it in January.DeezerShoove » 18 Sep 2025, 10:12 pm » wrote: ↑ If you're stuck on getting a bolt action, that's probably a good choice.
They're owned by Sako so that doesn't hurt either.
Lots of range in price on used pieces. $600 to $2200.

No tax stamp required starting January 2026DeezerShoove » 21 Sep 2025, 7:41 pm » wrote: ↑ Nice. I haven't quite made up my mind if that's a need or just a want.
So, I procrastinate. Meanwhile more choices come on market.
I purchased mine with the understanding that the tax stamp would no longer be necessary as of January 2026. I also acquired mine at this time because I am convinced that the manufacturers will increase the prices, given that you are saving $200.

Furthermore, should you choose to sell the suppressor, it is imperative to adhere to all regulations regarding the transfer, among other considerations. However, I am of the opinion that the process of selling will be simplified by the fact that the tax stamp is no longer necessary.
Ask me how many times I have fired my .308 Ruger American Predator
So far, I have spent nearly 1000 rounds, but I will need to consult my record book. I utilize a budget-friendly Bushnell Banner 3-9×40, which is more than sufficient for distances up to 200 yards.DeezerShoove » 23 Sep 2025, 1:26 pm » wrote: ↑ Either a lot or never I would guess.
Seems to me getting an expensive accessory for a specific gun would be because you have no intention of selling anyway. That would be a low priority when getting a suppressor. For me at least. I'd be keeping that puppy.

I contemplated the possibility of my possessions being sold after my death. My children show no interest in long rifles or silencers, and my wife shares the same sentiment. My sons, however, are avid bowhunters.
You are a fool.Skans » 04 Mar 2025, 11:44 am » wrote: ↑ It is what it is. I don't consider a gun with a full magazine loaded into the gun, but no round chambered "unloaded".
In fact, the Federal and most State laws would back me up on this. Under federal law, a firearm is typically considered "unloaded" when the chamber is clear, and the magazine is removed or empty. In some states, the definition may go further to require that the firearm not be capable of being readily fired, such as ensuring that the weapon is not in a condition where a round could be quickly chambered.
In actuality, it is a loaded handgun, without a round chambered, i.e. "Israeli Carry". There's a reason why this condition was given this name. It more accurately defines the condition of the gun.
I'm comfortable with my standard sling adjusted properly. Seems like a lot more sling to mess with when going Rhodesian. I don't really know the pros and cons in comparison until I have a go at both.Roshambo » 12 Oct 2025, 8:29 am » wrote: ↑ I acquired a Ruger Scout chambered in .308 along with a Rhodesian-style sling. I installed a sling mount into the synthetic stock. I do not intend to attach a scope to this rifle. I will utilize the factory iron sights. This will serve as my "brush gun" and the firearm I transport on my UTV.
My everyday carry is an MP Shield X 9mm in an OWB holster at the 3:00 position.
The blacked out U shaped rear sight took some getting used to.
Have you utilized one of these? Or perhaps a bipod or tripod?PlumHollow » 12 Oct 2025, 7:21 pm » wrote: ↑ I'm comfortable with my standard sling adjusted properly.
