great deal at the Grands Rapids gun show yesterday
« on: January 23, 2005, 09:09:52 AM »
i have been looking for a 22lr barrel for a time and i checked out the price for a new one but i held out thinking a good deal would come along.low and behold it did yesterday.at the GR gun show i found a super 14 stainless steel barrel topped with a silver scope base and silver rings and those rings were holding a silver 4x Leupold pistol scope :grin: this setup looks new and i dont think the barrel has ever been shot.there is no frame marks on the side of the barrel or anything,no rubs of any kind.i got this setup for $275.00 total out the door.hell the scope alone costs $280.00 before shipping from Midway.this guy selling this barrel also had a stainless Contender frame and a 17hmr barrel setup with a Leupold target varmint scope up around 12x i think and also had a 375jdj barrel ported setup with a Leupold 4x scope.all stainless and silver scopes that looked like new.all the stuff was at 1/2 price of new or a little below that.i should of got it all but i felt i should be able to eat for the rest of the week :wink:

this silver barrel and scope looks real good on my new blued G2 frame and i will post a picture of the setup soon

Saw that guy ... glad someone got the deal. Also saw a 45/410 carbine complete for like 350 and a couple of real nice mauser sporters for under 400  and some other good buys... a good show for arms ... poor for parts tho ... oh well,  congrats... Marty

Didn't see the swede's.... bet they were in the front room... there was a guy over by grips-n-clips I think, that had alot of mausers.... Gotta love the snow... barely got out the driveway to get there but our kid had us plowed out by the time we got home.... Have a good time w/ that .22    Marty
