The firearm, the knife, the club, etc are all just tools...... I am the weapon . That is my personal philosphy. If you are my enemy then you should pay less attention to what is in my hand and more to what is in my heart and mind. I WILL find a way to defeat you. Wm P.S. My other guiding principle i...

I found an example that appears to be well used but not abused for a good price ......it might a good ...

They tried something similar here in Michigan several years back.....they never got it out of committee because they included ALL ammo and that got enough hunters involved to shout it down.

Not in my opinion....a gunsmith is a professional and he should know enough about his vocation to resposibly quote time and price for the work he is being contracted for.
