This clean .50 Southern Mountain rifle, $800, just about perfect for the Texian period...

This Walther .22 bolt action with 5 shot clip that will go semi-auto if you lift the bolt before firing. It is also a work of art.

Stumbled on this pre-war M70 in north Idaho and had to have it. A 270 no less... That is a beauty. There is nothing I'd change on that rifle, very nice!

Only thing I've ever done that was spur of the moment was a 50 bmg. Walked into competitors row at Camp Perry and saw it. Wife said why not? Just buy it.
But it took more than that... I didn't want to drop the change.... but a few years later as threats were around to ban we ordered one...
Other than that its been very little. Lately as I was talking with Kaywoodie about shotguns for a buddies wife he mentioned they had a used clean franchi at teh shop. Done deal. Took me 2 months to go get it though.
Actually as I age and have a bit more spending bucks, it might be dangerous to go to gun shops or shows.
But for whatever reason, probably because I worked in one for a number of years as a youth, I don't go to stores or shows unless I have something particular in mind.

I am..........disturbed.
