Stovey....well done mate...I'm ecstatic fer ya mate. She sure is a sweet looking Runt.
If ya find the trigger is a little gritty, or not quite as smooth as you would like...Timney make a straight swap trigger group for the HOWA.
Lookin' forward to your range report buddy. Get out there and bust some caps mate.
Cheers, Vince |
Copy that big man! Monday monday monday!
Just had to break up a fight...first it was but sniffin' then somone snapped and Kabong did the Alpha Male thingy and...other guns were terrified! Everyone shook and made up so- my safe needs new upholstery though. Ruddy blaggards, knew this was gonna happen. Scope covers knocked off, bipods tangled up, not sure who's sling that is....what a mess!

Nice score Stovey.
I'm envious of the prices you guys pay.
Over here the rifle alone would be near $1000, scope $300, rings $60, bipod $80.
Gotta love our gun laws and resultant paperwork and the markup the importers have to charge to make a living.
Howa make a nice unit, so nice weatherby buy some of their stuff off them, do some tinkering, stick weatherby on the side and charge a few dollars more.
Looks the part, I hope its a shooter for you, keep the photos comming.

Well, after selling 13 firearms, my gun closet should be getting empty. Two rifles and two handguns left.
The good news for me is that I also store for a friend and my kids. Here's a photo of some I get to shoot with (Just the handguns in the photo):
Two in center: S&W M&P40; S&W SW40VE
Clockwise from top left: Walther P22 w/Bushnell Trophy Red Dot scope; S&W Bodyguard 380; Ruger LC9; Browning Challenger III Target .22 and Ruger Single Six .22/.22 Mag, 6" bbl with Bushnell Trophy Red/Green Multiplex scope.
One more may not sell, and is not in the photos . . . .minutes left . . . . . . . . . Tick, Tick - Do I get to keep her?
EDIT: Now that I see them lined up this way, it's obvious why I like to shoot the three pistols on the right, yet my daughter Alex likes the ones on the left . . . . .
