10/22 BLUES

[FIREHAWK]

are GONE well sorta i just won this auction on gunbroker, well amy technically is going to be giving it to me for my birthday
i freakin sweated it out all day watching the hours roll by on the auction

i figured it would be a good start to my blue gun collection

 

[Jimbob2.0]

Neat, who would have thought so many colors!

Been trying to nab a green laminate mannlicher for months now myself.

 

[fivepointstar]

sweet...what was the final price if you don't mind me asking?

 

[alucard0822]

That is sharp

 

[gdubyacobb]

I have almost the same one:

The Kids have named it Smurf Killer!

 

[august_west]

Congrats on the auction win! Nice rifle- have fun with it!

 

[Russ D]

That's a pretty peice.

 

[HarEngSer]

Sweet rifle man.

$200 plus $30 shipping I think i got a pretty good deal b/c the other dealers had the same gun for $350 (buy it now $368). i didn't want to buy a walnut basic stock rifle for $170 from dicks and then blow another couple hundred on a blue stock. but i know i will find myself at a pawnshop soon trying to talk them down on another rifle to do just that


i did try to get this one but i bid it up to $390 and still didn't hit his reserve he has a buy it now of $500 (also a matching savage 10 for $1000)

and i'm giving some thought to selling my gsg5 for this

I like the bottom rifle. The top rifle has a nice paint job but the stuff on it is junk. I'd take your rifle over the top one all day long.

 

[md_rick_o]

Those are too pretty.

 

[Shots Fired]

Congrats. Nice rifle. I have a custom 10-22 as well. If you need a partner to break it in, I shoot at Hap Bakker most Sunday mornings. Visit my website and give me a shout.

 

[fivepointstar]

That is a sweet $200 rifle

 

[soup101]

Nice rifle at a good price. Any plans for mods to it?

thanks russ, yeah i liked the paint but couldn't justify spending that much for the rest of it. that tactical solutions rifle on the bottom is $850

Nice rifle at a good price. Any plans for mods to it?

maybe a scope and of course some mags. i went for the stainless barrel to keep myself from wanting to swap it out with a stainless or colored. i dont want to put any money into this other than that.


thanks everybody i can't wait to get it home and now i have a reason to go pick up my group buy lower from joe

thanks, i've been meaning to check out hap baker. i'll have to make sure its a sunday when i go

 

[Russ D]

We are having a meet at Hap Baker sunday. You guys should come. we will be there around 3 pm.

 

[FIREHAWK]

cool, i will try to make it. i got a new scope for the gsg to play with and 1100 rounds. i won't get the 10/22 til the following weekend. also still haven't shot my AR

 

[FIREHAWK]

okay so i've got about 1-1/2 weeks probably til i bring her home, what are the common mods and accesories i should be gathering and preparing for? i figure i'll have to wait for a pa gunshow to get some mags, has anyone used the 50rnd teardrop mag or the drums that i see advertised?
