Hi my friends,
I have been a day late for about a month and a half each time I find a decent used rifle. I am a lefty who is looking for a used bolt in 30.06 but do not want to pay some of the prices I have found. Recently I had work done at Gander Mountain on a Berreta shotgun-I wanted another bead on the rib and the guy screwed up. He taped in the wrong place and they tried to pass it by me but I noticed the different color on the vent then saw the filled in hole. The gun was new in November and cost over $900. I was mad as ****. They took off $50 on the bill but that's still bs. The guy at the counter asked how to make it up to me and I said - you can start by finding me a good rifle at cost. It turns out they had two recent trade-ins, but they had yet to be checked by the gunsmith. One was a Rem 7400 .06 that looked all right for a 25yr old gun. Then the guy pulled out a win 100 .308 that looked clean, the price was under $400 and I asked why. It should be about $650 if it's really good. I just wondered guys-I remember they had a recall on that model, what was that for-and what about the gun in general. I always thought that model was a classic. It's not the bolt I have been looking so long for, but maybe it will work for me. What should I look for-they have a no return policy. I'm already mad as **** for them ruining the vent and then trying to get away with it. Thanks guys,
Sincerely,
Michael Sicowitz
