[Bigs Wife]

how much is it?

179.99

179.99

At that price I can't see it being a huge problem if you don't end up liking it as much as you thought you did...

Although I would heed Alan's statement and look at some other options in or close to the price range... possibly someplace that offers layaway so you could lock in a price and pay it over a month or two?

okay so when I buy this here rifle next week... I also have to buy a scope (obviously).. I need some suggestions on which one to get.. keeping it cheap (and i'm not talking like $600 cheap either.. seriously cheap) please Big was thinking about the Bushnell 3x9 at Wal Mart... He says we'll upgrade to a Nikon or Leopold later...

Get it if that's the one that floats your boat! Shooting is not just about how small the MOA is...........it's about having fun first and then when you are really serious about the size of groups you can shoot..........then you can shell out more money.......again.....only if that what floats your boat. I went to Academy to look at this rifle after reading your thread and I like it a lot.

For $179 I'd rather buy a Mosin Nagant.

Get a recoil pad.

I'll give you $20 towards a bolt-action, just for the love of God, do not buy a break action. I hate those damn things with a passion.

what makes you hate them so much??? and why is a bolt action that much better?

 

[navyguy]

I've got to agree with Texas1911. It's not just about buying something that will through lead down rang and not blow up. You can get a nice bolt gun for $500~ new and maybe half that gently used. A much better choice. You get what you pay for.

Because of the 50 some-odd ones I've shot as sight-ins at work, about 49 of them should have been melted down for scrap and used to make real guns.

The bolt action is just better, by alot.

I may buy one now just because I can't stand being told not to do something!!

 

[Bigs Wife]

Well great, I no longer know what to do. I want it.. but now I'm afraid I'm not gonna like it... WONDERFUL!

Don't give me all your money and guns.

 

[Bigs Wife]

Don't give me all your money and guns.

i'm confused... what does this mean...?

 

[Bigs Wife]
