the drool facter in high gear today
went to one of my favorite gun shops today.
they had an 58cal euroarm? of america looked like some type of carbine very short barrel for $325 to $375, two cabela's six shooter one the remington the other an navy 150 each, and another 6 shooter for $185. also picked up an mossbery 4x4 30 06 they have setting in the used guns section. I really really hate that stock design, it did feel good thou. loved how the bolt released to look at the bore.
But, I am going to save my money for an CVA Apex.

The Cooks Brothers rifle I have heard is a very good shooter. Maybe its the roundball twist or the fact it was made to shoot a minnie ball. New they are pretty expensive. So yes, keep them things in your part of the world. They are too tempting in mine. One reason I moved to the middle of the woods where there is nothing around me...
