Re: Marlin - Glenfield Model 30 ??
I was offered one of these for $175 in 95% condition. Allegedly unfired. Were they factory D/T'd for scope mounts or receiver sights? What makes it any different than a 336? Thanks I have a Glenfield Model 30. The stock is made of birch rather than black walnut and yes they are D/T'd at the factory...

Judging from your two previous post I would recommend possibly leasing a horse at a local stable or nearby farm first. Horses are indeed a lifestyle and when you honestly dont have a need for them or use them frequently they soon become a burden. As far as the prosective horse that you posted, I wil...

Well if he did it with intent I would say yes he should go to jail. However I seriously doubt that is the case. If it was honestly an accident, he and his family will have enough issues to deal with. If it were me, they would have probably found me laying next to him. I cant imagine having to live w...

Sounds like a good bullet design. I use the Federal HSTs and they have the same stridations on the bullet to assist in expansion. IMHO, the term .44 mag means more to me as far as power goes than the term platinum. Copper and lead have always proved to be lethal in my opinion. However, I do like nic...
