No prob, I called marlin right away and talked to some girl who while nice didn't know her a** from a hole in the ground and asked for me to send it in (6-8 weeks turnaround during hunting season) I said hell no and forgot about it for a few weeks. Decided to try my luck with them again and got a very knowledgeable southern gent who was more then happy to help. He decided on sending me a new extractor for free but alas, it was backordered and he couldnt tell me how long. So I let it go again, 2 months go by and I'm getting ready to call again or just take it to winters and pay him $50-70 to get it working. Well lo and behold the same day i called the gunsmith I get a package from remmington. New extractor yea! So I install it and no dice, it did function better then the original but still was unreliable. Took to over to a friends to do a frakenstein job on it and totally FUBARED the new one . Called marlin back and talked to another lady in hopes of purchasing another couple of extractors in case this happened again. She was very nice and refused to let me pay for it and 5 days later I had 2 new ones at my doorstep. So I decided, before I try them let me play with the original one a little and really take my time. Spend about an hour bending/fileing little by little and testing in my backyard (Thank you CCI CB's) and now I'm at the point where I feel its going to work every single time. I've run a little over 500 rounds through it flawlessly and im confident it will continue to work correctly. Sorry for the novel, but i figure if you interested in the gun you should know. Despite all the issues I love this thing and its the most accurate and fun .22 i've ever shot.

I have this rifle if you wanna give it a try, only mine is the blued version. The tube mag with 17-26 rounds is amazing. feels like you can shoot just forever. Great shooter. Had an extraction issue from the factory but I'm pretty sure i got it taken care of with a little fileing. Cabelas stocks these or did as of october. Mine was just shy of $200. Money well spent

I just saw them on another site for similar prices..... I can't remember where though..

Glad it worked out ok for you man. I'm sure if you had to shoot someone you would be in deep crap. I would of done the same thing thing though.

Or mature enough to make life and death decisions while under fire half a world away,... but have yourself a beer? No way.

Illegal to purchase a handgun before you're 21 years of age. No way around that.

wonder if it would be legal to have this gun with loaded mags stored in the stock? I http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/13470/Kel-Tec+SU-16B+Sub-16+.223+16%22+Carbine+Black+LW

ohhh so tempting... Wait its a glock.... nevermind. However I will say that having purchased from AIM before they're top notch

I will indeed be careful. I get blood tested 4 times a year to keep track of TSH levels. I'm sure my doctor wouldn't mind adding a lead test as well.

No you are not limmited to only RCBS dies..

I bet the judge could be machined for moon clips though to be able to fire .45acp. I think for the money a raging judge is the best bet. .454 casull, .45lc, and 3" .410 Glad to here the S&W copy is good though... after all I do like my smiths..

Thats FEDERAL pound me in tha a** prison http://mydrive.roadfly.com/photos/pic.php?u=23497IpDOm&i=4268

I think this is the perfect JIC gun. Fold it toss it in the truck and leave some loaded mags elsewhere in the vehicle. if the SHTF you know 5.56 and ar mags will be all over the place.

Saiga for sure.

Hey guys, so this is my first brass buying endeavor and I'm not really sure on the value of 9mm brass. I've seen a little under $40 on midway for "grade 3" brass but thats really all i've looked at and its out of stock. All I know is I need some, would consider quantities from 250-1000+ pieces. Prefer not sized or de-primed as I need to trim and size them down to 9x18 anyway. Price will play a big role in how many pieces I buy as I just splurged a bit on the reloading equipment Long way of saying I really have no idea how much I want to/can buy but please let me know what you have. Thanks, Beech

Oh well thats good to know its so easy to switch.

I have to hand it to Ruger for suspending orders instead of rushing production and letting mistakes slip through...

Welome man!, Glad you like glocks. They're great guns and if only they didn't feel terrible in my hands I would love to own several. Is it funny that I find it funny that you have over 3x more posts then he does? haha

Nice gun! Why no love for DA/SA?

I don't mind taking it somewhere, specially now that its getting nice out I can just throw it on the bike and take a ride. I also don't mind doing the wood work. considering one of those synthetic montie carlo stocks but I think that'll be plab B if I FUBAR the original stock. also I think im going to add the turn down bolt. Basically looking to do this but with irons and without shortening the stock. Couldn't a smith just a** a blade sight or something? not really going for fancy here lol. I love enfields and m44's... I love 91/30's to I just wont feel bad about abusing it like I would with an enfield or factory carbine. Plus its cool to have a rifle you customed up yoursef... even if it is a bit of a bubba project.

I would feel bad beating it up, I want a wartime round reciever 91/30 so I wont feel AS bad about throwing it around...

Thinking of picking up a second mosin and cutting down the barrel to 16" and basically making it a utility gun... anyone know what one would expect to pay to have this done and new front sight added?

congrats zombie!

I would love this, just so I could use my makarov chambered gun and my j-frame

does a scabbard count as cased? having the stock and all sticking out?
