I would tend to agree that you got a pretty good deal.
New Standards here can be had for $1200 and Loaded for $1450.00.
But that doesn't include the sling of 20 round mag either.
Now just get you a couple tubes of Tetra Gun Grease, USGI butt stock kit and some CLP for the barrel. Stuff a few USGI cotton patch into the Multi tool to quite it. Rub the stock with a few coats of MinWax Tung oil *NOT letting it dry* Rub on and rub off. This will give it a nice satin finish and protects better than just walnut stain.
For extra mags, I see lately that there ar a number up for sale at
www.ar15.com
I even see where Georgia Precission has new SA 10 rounders for $16.95.
I just have the Standard but I sure like it.
Where I am the guns are black powder, Mini 14's the then up to bolt guns (hunting style).
I was about floored when a guy broke out an SKS with an operable folder
I don't think it was preban.
So I put on quite a show breaking out 4 AR's in a number of configs including a Stoner M4 and Preban BM 16 inch Hbar with tele stock...
Then after all those questions....
The Tactical Savage 110FP in .308 with camo stock....More questions.
Ah but the best is last when I brek out my Big Beautiful Gal and wrap my hands rounds her
The range becomes quiet and the folks gather round to look.
Can't wait to get my SA M1 Garand completely rebuilt and rebarrelled in .308.....Range days will never be the same.
Your gonna love her.
Congrates
