Their trade-in values are like pretty much everyone else - roughly 50-60% of market value.

picked up a 4506, stripped and cleaned it with Hoppe's solvent and lube. For whatever reason I also have a can of Break Free CLP, and after some reading CLP and 40W Mobile 1 come highly recommended as lubes

any thoughts or particular lubes y'uns swear by?

2/4/2011 9:11:41 PM

I can't remember the name, but it is in a green and yellow can and can be got at most gun shops

2/4/2011 10:24:58 PM

cool

I'm gonna repost that question in the lounge thread so as not to muddy up the used thread

2/4/2011 10:43:15 PM

i've never owned a gun long enough to use up what came with it

Rem Oil comes in a green and yellow can. i do not like it at all.

[Edited on February 5, 2011 at 10:33 AM. Reason : i've never bought a gun that came with lube ]

2/5/2011 10:32:54 AM

yeah everything i read pretty much trashed rem oil

2/5/2011 10:46:00 AM

meh- I've never had a problem with it, but then again... I'm not an active hunter, nor do I give my guns a lot of wear and tear. It was just what was suggested to me by a couple of gun guys when I first started shooting, so it is what I use. Let me know what you end up finding, and I'll give that a go for my next time cleaning everything

2/5/2011 11:24:20 AM

well at this point i wouldn't know a good lube if it fell off the nightstand and ruined my carpet so any insight is appreciated

2/5/2011 11:26:51 AM

haha I will say, whatever you get, keep it in a separate zip lock baggy... I've seen plenty of lube spills, and that stuff stains and makes one hell of a mess

2/5/2011 11:55:35 AM

that's what i like about CLP. it's an aerosol can the size of a spray paint can. as long as the plastic top stays on, you're good.

2/5/2011 5:49:42 PM

Break Free CLP.

If its good enough for the military...

Glock G36 for sale. Less than 50 rounds through it. I bought it a couple months ago and then found a Kimber 1911 Tactical Ultra at the last gun show and just had to have it. I really love my G36 but the high price of the Kimber has left me with money troubles. Anyone interested?

2/6/2011 11:03:35 AM

A gun may come in handy while living on the streets...

2/6/2011 12:01:02 PM

i've got some reloading components i'd like to trade

(18) speer 44 magnum shotshell capsules. even have the portion of the box with load data for you.

(42) speer .308" 170 gr flat nose bullets (speer #2041)

(46) .308" 150 gr flat nose bullets (i think they're sierra. i have the label off the box and it's green, but it doesn't have brand on it)

i don't have a 44 mag or a 30-30, so none of this is much use to me. i'd like to trade for some reloading equipment or components, whatever you've got that you don't need. i don't expect much for them.

2/6/2011 3:34:04 PM

anyone got a locking full size single or double handgun case and willing to sell?

2/6/2011 4:58:20 PM

bullets are going in the mail tomorrow

anybody want these shotshell capsules? i'd kinda hate to throw them away.

2/6/2011 8:06:43 PM

For Sale:

Kel Tec P3-AT .380, extra magazine, Desantis Nemesis Pocket Holster, Uncle Mikes IWB holster, and about (roughly) 5-6 boxes of ammo (one is Speer Gold Dot). Gun has about 25 rounds through it and comes with the box, manual, lock, etc... Asking 275 with all of the stuff, or best offer. Can sell by itself too..

2/6/2011 11:41:30 PM

6^ How much for the G36?

2/7/2011 12:00:06 AM

shotshell capsules are gone

How hard is it to find an m1 garand?

2/9/2011 8:19:52 PM

extremely easy

2/9/2011 8:34:07 PM

good investment? you know, in case i have to defend my tower from bandits in a post-2012 apocalyptic wasteland

2/9/2011 8:43:09 PM

depends on what you want to do

my uncle has one. it's heavy. i have no use for one. do not want one in the slightest. 99% of my shooting is done from some sort of rest, be it a truck hood, a bench, shooting sticks, a tree, or a shooting rail in a treestand. an m1 would be cool if you just wanted some 30 caliber plinking action i guess.

nothing wrong with getting one just because you want one and think they look cool. what do you want to do with the gun?

[Edited on February 9, 2011 at 8:50 PM. Reason : adsf]

2/9/2011 8:48:16 PM

honestly i'm just looking for a sturdy, reliable, relatively cheap (gun and ammo), relatively powerful and relatively available (ammo and parts) rifle for general purpose. right now just for target practice but maybe one day for some basic hunting. it doesn't necessarily have to be the best at any one thing, just pretty solid and well-rounded

all i have (either in my possession or available to me) is my 4506 for home protection, the rest are small-caliber rifles, couple small-caliber revolvers, and a small armament of shotguns in various states of disrepair.

basically i'm looking to trim the fat and stock up with/for a good pistol (covered) and a good mid-range rifle (looking) to satisfy 99% of the uses joe average could expect to come across



[Edited on February 9, 2011 at 9:08 PM. Reason : dammit here i go again in the used gun thread]

2/9/2011 9:05:19 PM

are you set on semi auto or are you open to other options?

a lever 30-30 would be an excellent choice for you, imo. and lever guns are fun to shoot.

2/9/2011 9:09:09 PM

while that does sound like an attractive option, aren't they relatively short-range?

and no, not set on semi-auto but i'm going to avoid single-shot bolt-action

[Edited on February 9, 2011 at 9:14 PM. Reason : sadf]

2/9/2011 9:13:26 PM

it's fine to 100 yds. maybe 150. folks claim you can get better range using hornady's new leverevolution ammo due to it's improved BC. do you want to hunt deer or what?

[Edited on February 9, 2011 at 9:22 PM. Reason : if you're a good shot and you understand your bullet's drop, you can shoot further]

2/9/2011 9:19:55 PM

hell maybe i'll pick one up just to see if we get along

what about in the 7.62 chamber?

2/9/2011 9:32:25 PM

nothing at all wrong with .308

[Edited on February 9, 2011 at 9:38 PM. Reason : ain't no '06, though ]

2/9/2011 9:37:49 PM

actually you've got me looking around...I'm really liking the idea of a semi-auto M14 or an M1A

[Edited on February 9, 2011 at 10:02 PM. Reason : or what specific '06 would you recommend?]

2/9/2011 9:52:02 PM

do you have a budget in mind?

i really like the versatility of the .30-06. you can load 100 gr plinker rounds, 110 gr varmint rounds, etc etc all the way up to 220 gr bear hunting rounds. it's awesome. the .308 is fairly versatile as well.

2/9/2011 10:09:56 PM

no budget at the moment...I won't be buying it right away, I want to do more research. Just trying to get an overview of the type of rifle I want to keep my eye on. Right now I think something in the .308/7.62/30-06 realm fits the bill, so it's a matter of narrowing it down and hopefully trying a few out.

I do want something simple (easy for me to disassemble/clean/maintain/repair), maybe good ol' iron sights, built to last, few parts, wood/steel construction, etc.

[Edited on February 9, 2011 at 10:20 PM. Reason : something ol' Pops McWW2 would be proud of]

2/9/2011 10:19:08 PM

^ & ^^ you should get the sks :
cheap
7.62x39 is plentiful and cheap
sks is very common
comes with cleaning kit and rod
comes with bayonet!
and it shoots tennis balls!

the tennis ball launcher is this:http://www.laxin.net/Launcher/
i have some blanks in stripper clips for it too, its fun for the dogs.
for $240 ill do all the blanks, 50 rnds 7.62 ball, and tennis ball launcher.



other pics of the sks and the bow are up in the gallery.

the bow says high country safari hunter, seems nice. $120 obo



the other bow isnt labeled but feels like a 60lb draw and has fiber sights. its a green and black camo paint job and shoots well. Id take $80 obo

2/9/2011 10:22:22 PM

well, i can't really help you, dave

i have no use for service rifles

now, if you decide you want a stainless steel and plastic tack driver with some optics on top, i can help you out. that's more my speed.

2/9/2011 10:30:11 PM

not really anything more specific to say besides its a fully loaded Yugoslavian sks. its semi auto 10 rnd clip, and you can modify it to something like this if you wanted to:
