Got a pic? You can always post a pic and description over on the shotgunworld forum and one of the gurus will probably know.

$179 at dicks on Black Friday sale.

Black Friday ad is out. Ammo is buy one get one 50% off again, same current deal for $ off regular priced guns, but some other decent deals in there.

Its a cheap enough part but if you dont want to wait/pay to order, you can easily modify your stock one with a little grinding on the large hole. Compare your stock plate, which will have a sort of kidney shaped hole, to the photo in the link and hit it with a dremel to round out the inner radius and the bolt will release when you pull the charging handle. Plenty of links on the web detailing the mod.

Check out sportsmansguide for Lawman 115gr, goes for $234 a case of 1000 (or $224 if you are a club member) plus $19 shipping. They always have coupon codes too, the latest linked below. I think the $25 off $185 gives you the best deal at $230 shipped. http://www.slickguns.com/content/sportsmans-guide http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?p=WX2&i=215665

If its 'punching you in the face' then the stock doesn't fit you. 12" LOP sounds awful short.

First recommendation is to buy a special bushing to get rid of the magazine disconnect and half those steps are elimininated or simplified. Magazines will then easilly drop out and insert without hanging up. Best $12-15 you can spend on a mkiii in my opinion. There are a couple of vendors that sell them (Sam lam, etc) that will work with your mkiii internals. If you plan on upgrading to volquartsen trigger parts, just get the mkii versions and add a mkii bushing to accomplish the same. Also, on the rear of the recoil spring guide rod is a crescent shape piece of metal where the rod extends slightly through the center making a spherical bulge. That crecent shape is right under the hole in the reciver for the MSH and It's that bulge that helps retain the MSH before its closed shut. It's also that bulge that can make it difficult to insert/remove the MSH. You can do a little sanding/grinding/filing/polishing on that spherical bulge, removing just a little at a time, to allow the MSH to insert and remove a little easier. If you're afraid to screw that up, which is difficult to do if you take your time, that part is under $10. my MSH now goes in and out by hand fairly easily, but still is retained and not loose. See the part here withe the crecent shape in question on the right. http://shopruger.com/KA-57-MK-III-III-Recoil-Spring-Assembly/productinfo/61051/

Guess they had a site outage and are offering a $10 off code through Monday as an apology. Doesn't seem to be a minimum (like the other $20 off $150). Not a huge savings but it will cover shipping if you only need to place a small order that doesn't qualify for the normal free shipping deals.

Went to cabellas recently and was really disappointed with the ammo prices. They don't honor the website prices and for shot shells, dicks was actually cheaper and didn't have an hour plus drive involved. They had a lot of used shotguns on the rack though. Was fun to shoulder all of them without needing any clerk to help.

FYI, botach has glock mags on sale for 19.95 shipped at the moment.

As much as I dislike the company or most stuff, botach has always had their glock mags in stock with fast, free shipping. New mags, including the model 21 13 rounders go for $22 shipped. The are always loose without factory packaging, but they are factory glock and always work flawlessly for me.

Head over to the rimfirecentral forums, they'll get you your fill of 10/22 info with separate forums for stocks, barrels, action, etc. A 20" barrel is going to be pretty end heavy, especially in a bull barrel, but if your planning on another stock you can compensate. For barrels, green mountain and ER Shaw make decent pieces at reasonable prices. Volquartsen, Kidd, tacsol, etc for the high end. Shooters discounts usually has decent inventory and prices. http://www.brimstonegunsmithing.com/ruger-1022-parts/ as does gun kings http://gunkings.com/ Que for bolt work. https://sites.google.com/site/quesplace/ Brimstone Gunsmithing for trigger jobs, he'll upgrade the trigger components and set it up with whatever pull weight you like http://www.brimstonegunsmithing.com/ruger-1022-parts/

PSA has blazer brass in .40 on special till tomorrow while its in stock for $11.99/50 plus shipping. http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/ammunition/handgun-ammunition/40-s-w/cci-blazer-brass-ammunition-40-sw-180-grain-full-metal-jacket.html

With the current buy 4 get one free deal at dicks, the federals (pink or the red/white/blue) are around $51 with tax.

Picked up some more federal target loads. Too bad the store near me has almost none of the rifles I'd be interested in stock. Looking to check out the new beretta a300 outlander too.

Just a small part, but smooth transaction. Fast shipping, good packaging, nice guy to boot.

Smooth transaction, fast shipping and good communication. Nice doing business.

Of those two 10/22 hands down. Head over to the rimfirecentral forum and you'll have your fill of ruger fanatics with all types of support for any questions. If youre open to other suggestions, depending on your intended use, the s&w m&p 15-22 is a really fun plinker on an AR platform.

Had a great time, thanks Iggy and everyone else that help set it up. Dueling tree+weak hand = evil.

They've got the Remmington Gun Clubs on sale now buy 1 get 1 at 50% off. With a regular price of $6.99, that two boxes for $10.50 (or $5.25 a box) which is a pretty nice price. As for the discount coupons, both the Score Card and the Kid Coupon books both state not to be used on ammo, but most of the cashiers will take them. YMMV of course.

Well guess nobody has an opinion on this scope. Happened to be at dicks this weekend and by coincidence they had this scope on clearance so I picked up a brand new one. Will let everyone know my opinion after I give it s test this weekend.

I have a chance to pick up a like new bushnell trophy 15-45x50 spotting scope for $75 and was wondering if it was worth it. Looks like it can be picked up for $160-199 new so this seems like a decent deal if the scope is worth owning at all. I'll be using it mostly for 100 yd range or less with .223 caliber and the occasional bird/nature watching. I understand that you get what you pay for with optics, but i cant justify a high priced swarovski or the like for the basic use i'll give it. So what say the forum, is it worth picking up?

Just stopped by the Union store and picked up 20 boxes of the federal targets at $4.98 a box. Found another $15 off coupon in the wife's 'kids coupon' book so it was $91 out the door which is a great price. Price was not marked on the shelf and they had at least 60 more boxes on the shelf.

Picked up an M&P 15-22 rifle from Sabino last week and had a terrific transaction. He worked with me over a couple days through my stupidly busy schedule to coordinate a time to meet up and held the rifle for me just because I was the first to respond. Thought that was a really honorable thing to do. Rifle was in impeccable condition and the package deal was more than fair so I'm sure he could have found another buyer around me. Wouldn't hesitate to do business with Sabino if given the chance. Michael

That one is made by Otis. You can buy the elsewhere for cheaper ( amazon has it for $44 with free shipping).
