"WITHOUT the ugly crossbolt safety." You have just insulted half the people that you hoped to sell to. You could have simply called it a pre-safety model, now you have called any Winchester after 1992 and any Marlin after 1982, ugly. Ugly it may be but that is NOT the way to sell.
Well dagburn I sure hate that I insulted anyone. Seems to me that IF anyone is truly insulted by my remark about MY rifle then they probably WANT to be insulted and have a chip on their shoulder.I wasn,t aware that you were the official hall monitor for the classifieds .The real issue is the rifle for sale and not the trivial point that you brought up. Please mind your own buisness and allow me to advertise MY rifle the way I want to.I would think that you are just wanting to stir crap with your post on my AD as IF you TRULY wanted to try and assist with the wording of my ad you would have PM me instead of posting in the body of my ad.
I would have to agree with bcraig, apparently he doesn't have any thing better to do than be a hall monitor. Seems to be a lot of that going on lately. There seems to be a small minority of people out there going out of there way these days to try and get everybody else to do and see things there way.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience
