    Remington Has No Plans to Leave New York

    This is very disappointing, I understand its hard on a company as big as remington to move. But they wont need to move when everything is banned, they will be out of busniess. So a better play would be to not stand for the 2A attacks like this by moving. But who am I, not a CEO just a hill billy.

    x2 HAHAHAHA couple logs if you plan on being lost awhile. Serious note though, mylar blanket. they are very light and can be used to multiple purposes. Bright and shiny for a visual, wrap yourself, build shelter, reflect heat from a fire, etc.

    Non riffle guy looking for a riffle

    Look up stevens 200 builds. they arent bad shooters out of the box, and tons of aftermarket so you can change whatever you want as you seem fit. then spend the rest on a reloading bench (ie neck turn, press, dies, powder, etc). Reload your own and shoot the barrel out of it.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Sub $600 1911

    Citadel or ria, both are armscor imports. I went with the citadel f/s so I could tinker with it, use it for CCW, etc and not be heart broken if I messed it up or it got a scuff from riding around. I was pleasantly surprised how well it shoots and the quality for the price. Ended up dropping...

    Re: Older savage to buy or not to buy But how bad will the price be is the question. Trying to stay under a new 10fp basically or it would be better to get one of those.
