Looking for a field craft for a lightweight walking varminter. I can get a new one right now for about 1300 on GB but would prefer at least a partial trade. I have 3 Glock’s and a couple Remington classics or???

You should buy the one on GB and sell the other guns.Thats a good price on a Fieldcraft.

There have been some screaming deals on 22-250 FCs on GB. One was under $1200 ...

It’s because the biggest distributor in the US just went bankrupt. I bought one at dealer cost and saved over $400!!

Yes. I know. Question is; are the low prices from liquidation of existing inventory from the bankrupt distributor or changes in the Barrett line; e.g. the 270 going to nine twist, 22-250 not selling, etc. Haven’t seen creeds or 7/08s going anywhere near as cheap.

You should buy the one on GB and sell the other guns.Thats a good price on a Fieldcraft. ⬆️ This. Sell what you don't want to buy what you do. The bargain price on the new one should ease the pain on the old ones. You might luck into someone just dying for your guns and with a Fieldcraft they don't want anymore, just like Kate Beckinsale might show up at my door looking to "do me a favor".
What fresh Hell is this?
