Give my condolences to your friend. As if moving to Chicago alone isn't bad enough... =\ On the positive side, looks like a nice M1.

Well the bright side is he can shoot it whenever he wants when he flys back up. If he does decide he wants his freedom back id be happy to return it.

Is sad day. Everyone's buying up all the firearms and ammo so I can't get much to shoot at the range or hunt with.

Any reasonably person would keep like 100 bullets in reserve, no? isn't that plenty? i have not even shot that many bullets true my k98 in the past 4 years.

And if you mean .22lr, just buy 1000 of them in a box and shoot away, don't tell my you always buy 1 box of bullets and then shoot it all. That is just silly.

I love blowing through .22's. Most of the time i take my sweet ass time at targets 100 yards+ with my centerfires but every now and then the urge to slap a drum on the 10/22 and go to town on a pumpkin is too great to resist.

I upgraded my M24 SWS with a Leupold LR/T M1 Mark 4 3.5-10X and now it looks like the M24 from Proyect Reality.



What its missing is the proper Badger Ordnance M24 mount (like 150 bucks) and the rear mount for iron sights that cost 25 bucks, and installation, like 70 (they have to drill through the receiver).

And then for the finale, scratch off the Remington Logo, and laser engrave, Remington model 700 M24. And my M24 SWS project will be at its end....then comes the accessories (proper hard case, the tools and so on).

I will leave the M1 as I like it better, in real life, the M24 use the Leupold MK4 M3 LR/T.

and at the end of the day, you fired hundreds and hundreds of .22's and only payed little

Absolutely. It has to be mil-spec, and everyone that camo their rifle paint the scope as well. But you gotta be extra careful.
