Sold rifle on armslist.
Crazy.... then again, what do they expect when you have a completely uncontrolled listing service with ZERO accountability or feedback. At least on gunbroker there is a feedback system like here.

What Do You Drive Currently. What Was Your Favorite & Least Favorite Vehicle?
Current: Keep swapping with wife, 2016 BMW 320i and 2015.5 Volvo S60 T6 (Supercharged + turbocharged). Favorite: 09 BMW e92 (3 series coupe), 93 Z28. Hated: 09 BMW e92(3 series coupe), Any BMW owner will tell you it is a love hate relationship with them. Bought my coupe as a 3 year old leftover with 17k miles on it for an amazing price, drove it through 110k miles and traded in last year. Drivetrain was bullet proof, but oh my so many freaking electrical gremlins. @67gtonut was right. lol. Swore I would not get another BMW but the new Beemer was cheaper to lease than a Honda Accord (sub $300) so got it. Recently wife has been driving it and I have been driving the Volvo. Volvo is freaking awesome. T6 is now the super charged + turbcharged 4 cylinder putting down over 300 HP. The most comfortable seats and still gets over 30 MPG. A little on the smaller side in rear seat comfort but stupid safe and stupid quick. I do miss my old mullet mobile. Anastasia did enjoy her Honda Accord and Civic.

Weapon Hunter and Sarco
And why did they not feature the 91/30 Sniper. SVT40 was sooooo bad that it was the choice capture weapon for Germans and Fins. SVT40 was also the first semi auto to use a gas system, before any German or allied gun. A good condition SVT40 is a superb gun. Love mine. And yes, in Canada soviet C&R are extremely common with a ton of imports. Russian SKS are now still $250 to $300 in Canada, in Loonies. Would love me a crate of SVTs.

Baba Yaga (John Wick)
Taran does not work on HK. i am sure part of deal of training with Taran was using guns modified by him. Killer product placement. For me, at least from the gun perspective, HK (JW1) and 1911s from ala Hitman Agent 47.... scream classy. Nothing wrong with Glock though for movies, and non gun teenie boppers would of herd of Glock but not HK. As far as Russian, Baba Yaga is an old witch who takes bad kids. There is NO boogie man in Russian culture. It is 100% woman. Boogy man is just wrong and like Calling Jesus .... Mohamed or Shiva. In any case as nick pointed out, JW is not Baba Yaga but the guy who kills her.

Weapon Hunter and Sarco
Blah the sniper episode was horrible. He completely dismisses the SVT40 after a first round hit but failure due to ammo? BS.... and he travels from Canada to California to borrow a "super rare" reproduction scope and mount? How about eBay. Lol. Also the retelling of story of Stalingrad, Zaitsev did not use SVT40 sniper, he used Mosin 91/30 Sniper.

Sportsman's center did the renovation and moved the guns to the front. During this time, I also don't think they knew which way they wanted to go and dumped a ton of money to dive into the hunting, and opened up the huge bow center. Now they are cutting back the size of the store and I believe were looking to rent out half of the building, i.e. the new renovation that is now closed. Possibly the owners getting older and just don't know which way to go? By having Cheyenne now go further south on/off of 130, it should help them more, if they want. At one point they were also the distributor for Liberty safes in NJ and had them all on display, not sure if they do anymore. One thing that did not change, the two guys working the gun counter, extremely friendly and if you are interested in older firearms, just a treasure trove of information. Most of all, ZERO sales pressure.... perhaps part of the issue? hehe.

Weapon Hunter and Sarco
I must say.... watched a few episodes of season 1 and surely want to go shoot my C&R guns. lol. As far as the show, while the production value is good, the content and quality.... specifically the host... is horrible. Also, lots of factual errors. Show would of been far better if they just let the collectors talk and host the show. The only value in the show is seeing the collections some of those guys have. Wow.

Weapon Hunter and Sarco
Sarco is well.... Sarco. Their NJ location was just a whole bunch of stuff laying around and they did have a few legal issues. lol. You would figure stuff would be computerized, but just think....after decades.... how much "stuff" just accumulates.

British Airways global outage... (hacking?)
And that's the thing.... everything on 1 PSU? For something as critical as the one system that is running the entire airline to fail not on bad code.... but hardware? tough to imagine. There were comments that all of BA's IT was outsourced to India though, not sure if true or not.
-
Longest distance to purchase?
I suppose 7 hours, to Maine, When planning trips to see friends in NH, I usually check out what KTP and Cabelas up there have. So part of the reason for the trips was to pick up a few guns on different occasions.

British Airways global outage... (hacking?)
So BA had to cancel all flights due to a system going down. They blamed on a "power supply." Correct me if I am wrong... wouldn't they entire reservations system run on more than 1u server? And more likely racks and racks... and even if it was a "power supply"... would take all of what, 30 mins to replace and reboot? Seems more like ongoing hacking than a simple hardware issue to cancel all of the days flights, globally. https://www.rt.com/news/389922-british-airways-system-outage-passengers/
