Thanks for the heads up

I know little about guns aside from the fact that I need and want one for when TSHTF. what information should I know before getting this? Of course I'll be going for the cheaper one.

The Remington, while not my favorite, is certainly hard to beat as an all around rifle.

Especially at prices like that.

Funny how the weapons are going down in price while the ammo goes up

Thanks for the heads up! I have been looking for a decent priced "used" remington 700 hb .308, but at that price I think I'll just opt for new instead.

I got one of those .22 rifles, actually it's a Mossberg with a borrowed Marlin receiver, for 99$.

CCI stinger hollows.. you can blow up some coke cans like my 9mm will with FMJs.

If you want a heads-up, here is some good advice:

1. Buy from private individuals.

2. Buy From Private individuals.

3. Do not buy from FFL licensed dealers.

4. Buy From Private individuals.

Thanks. I have a question though. Can gun purchases be tracked if you get them at a store like Dick's, even if you use cash? I wouldn't mind having one but don't want big brother to know I have one. Doesn't seem like a good idea.

Umm... everyone purchasing from a store will go through a background check to make sure your not a felon.

OK, I will say it... Don't be so paranoid, there are 100 million gun owners in the US, nobody is coming for your .22 rifle anytime soon. I would much rather worry about the threat of "anarchy" due to a disaster. When 1 in 3 or so Americans own weapons, I wouldn't worry to much about confiscation.

While these are very good deals aren't we supposed to NOT be selling stuff on ATS? I don't want to have to sift through thread after thread if people are plugging for stuff for sale (even guns which I love dearly!) This isn;t Shotgun News, is it?

As a side note......Seeing how most replies to this thread will be gun owners, I'm curious of how many of you had the Census takers come
to your house last year and GPS your house? It happened to me
(I thought it was innocent at the time) but I've read it happened
to mainly known gun owners (if you purchased several arms from
a dealer recently (last couple of yrs).

Any info appreciated. Thanks

Poor Semper, having to put up with a wife like that!

You married well sir!
...now if it were only tax-deductible

:::wipes drool from chin:::::
very nice, I think you will find the pistol foregrip a very good thing. As I was scrolling down my mind was saying "that's an M4". Close enuf!

My wife is horrible just like yours!! Ah, we sufferin' menfolk!
