Selling stuff to purchase LRH rifle

[Firedad]

Well I started pulling the trigger on acquiring funds for a new rifle. Still not sure what direction I want to go but I'm debating on seekins, Christensen or buying and building on a tikka. Pretty sure I've convinced myself on 7prc vs 7rm or something else that more widely available. Today I took in my stainless HK usp9 and sold it for $725 and talked to them about my SKS that I'll never shoot for $899. Haven't sold that one yet but with these and my chainsaw for $500 I'll have a solid amount to start with once I have them all sold.

Anyone else sell their soul for firearms?

Nope!

we have been talking about the Seekins rifles in another thread the last couple of days go take a look at that info…. It is titled Seekins Element…

Never sell guns, only buy guns!….

Dude, don't sell your chainsaw...

 

[bsnyder]

Yep! I sell stuff to buy new all the time. I like to tinker if I'd learn to save I'd be better off.

I know I know. I told myself I'd never sell one again but as I get older I see a lot of crap sitting around taking up space. I've had two running cars that I wouldn't let go and instead they sat and went to #*!!? I ended up giving them away. I have this chainsaw, it's a great saw but I live in NV. I'm not going out cutting firewood. I'm not out sport falling. The HK was a cool pistol but I still have more. The SKS was my poor man's AR before I built my AR. It just so happens it's worth more now and was a good investment. Now I'm ready to trade that investment in for a LR rifle.

I could always borrow from work if necessary or buy another. Actually I do plan to buy an MS140 to replace what I've got. I don't need a falling saw for a once a year Xmas tree

Ok ….ok…. Sell the saw…lol

The element is real nice. I don't know if I'll get that much saved up before I break down a buy though, same with waiting for the ph2 to become available here. That's why I've been going back and forth with my choices. Like build a tikka in 7prc and then I'll have a 7rm or 300wm to shoot until I do the swap. And I could always swap back if 7prc is a flop or ammo is hard to find

Don't sell your guns (or chainsaws)...

Go donate some body fluids or something...

"Don't need!" Blasphemy!

What scope and mount system do you plan on using. That is far more important than a "long range" hunting rifle. Any halfassed accurate rifle can shoot long with a dependable scope and mounts. Once you invest in bomb proof optics…. Then hell yes get a badass rifle .

I would have bought the HK it would match my 45. Do some research on the forum before you consider christensen there seems to be a lot of unhappy owners.
