Survivor in .223?
« on: December 21, 2008, 05:03:42 PM »
Hey guys how do you guys feel about the survivor?  I've heard that the LOP is short for a lot of people.  I was thinking of one in .223.  Thanks for any advice!

We're here to fight."

hey alien319,          I GOT BACK FROM IRAQ LAST WEEK , SURE HAPPY TO BE HOME.  THE SURVIVOR IS GREAT GUN , EVEN IF YOU FIND THE STOCK TO SHORT YOU CAN CHANGE THAT BY  INSTALLING A REGULAR STOCK .    I HAVE A .223 IN THE SUPERLIGHT HANDI , ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITE GUNS, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE SOME BOLT RIFLES COSTING ALOT MORE.          TRY THE SURVIVOR , I THINK YOU CAN'T GO WRONG.               FBC

Thanks FBC,  I hope your trip to Iraq went well.  I got back in Oct.  It is a great feeling to be home that's for sure!  Hope you have a new gun lined up for a Welcome Home gift!!

I am 6'1" and take a 36" sleeve length in a shirt. I use a Survivoir stock on my .22 Mag Sportster for coyote hunting on Maine and it fits and works great. I did not like them at first glance but gave them a try. I say give one a try and keep an open mind, it may surprise you....<><....:)
