Off Season Lets Talk Guns
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon? Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware? Part 2: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=293623 Last edited by Bearcat; 07-28-2015 at 06:06 PM.. |

Wow. Is that how much a rifle costs? I thought I would have to spend like $400 at most.

The scope will be junk, the action fairly lose, the trigger a little harsh, and it's a larger caliber so each round will cost more, but this is bargain basement pricing. http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.../category/521/ |

We could use a few more details:
How much $ are you willing to spend on this bolt action rifle? New or used? Scope or iron sights, or both? Buying local or online? Cost of ammo a major factor? |

I would suggest you go to his store and get them in your hands, though. Everyone is built a little different and you can normally tell which one feels more "natural" in your hands and on your shoulder, even when it's your first rifle. |

Well I don't want to go hunting with it, just target practice. Looking for something I can do by myself that is fun to do. The only range nearby is indoor so I think there might be a caliber limit.
I'll go check things out in person before I buy. |

Buck, since you are in Cali I have no idea what/how to recommend.
You can get build an AR-15 that will shoot just as good as any bolt for around 500 and it will be a LOT more capable, but the laws out there make you get a bullet button lower. I just finished a 16" Bull that shoots 2-3" groups at 500 yards for under $500. 16" DPMS Moly Bull Barrel $125 Tube handguard $35 Gas tube $10 Blem Upper + Parts $60 Blem Lower $50 A2 Buttstock Kit $60 Lower Parts Kit $40 Bolt Carrier Group $69 Charge Handle $20 DPMS Bull barrels are amazing. Bolt actions are cool, but I have yet to have a bolt action fan shoot a good AR and not be seriously impressed. |

Not the best price price I've seen, but the best price out there right now. 22LR 7 cents a pop. If you have a Cabala's, decent deal with the free shipping to the store.

Feel free to post some good Black Friday deals.
I'll start it of by posting the link to Palmetto State Armory. Too many deals to list, and it changes daily. http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/ |

I ordered 25 boxes of Estate 00 buck ($6.99 per 25 shells) last week, and it should arrive Monday. Hell of a deal for 00 buck. http://palmettostatearmory.com/index...ds-1127n0.html I don't think I will make it through the weekend without ordering more stuff from them. Probably gonna grab a complete AR15 pistol lower, and maybe a rifle lower. |

Armalite is going to have 20% off all rifles on Monday.
www.armalite.com SWFA has a very nice sale going on mounts and their scopes. I might get a 5-20HD. www.swfa.com Palmetto will continue to rape and pillage my wallet. I am waiting for their flip-up iron sights to go on sale for $59 only because I have already purchased every toher god-damn they have to offer. Oh, they have Aimpoint Pros for $365. I have one and they are excellent. |
