    Big Brother's Beautiful Baby...



    Ruger Gunsight Scout .308 16" barrel....

    I get a slight impression () he is well pleased with it...doesn't stop blethering on about it...can't understand why
    ...amitie, respect mutuel et amour...

    ...le beau et le bon, cela rime avec Breton!...

    Wait until it is a teenager. It will be nothing but trouble.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    He had a Ruger .44 semi for years, took it to Australia and it was put through the grinder...apparently after handing it over, he went out side and had an acute sentimental moment...neat little shooter, great in the bush...

    You mean they were drinking Waikato? That would explain many design faults in the world.

    Fair few blokes over here have jumped on the Ruger Scout wagon, not really my cup of tea, but as has been said beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. I just cant get the idea of having those magazines hanging way down low, but can see they would be useful if blatting away at big mobs of pigs or a goat cull. The bottom of the butt could have finished a bit better. Hope he enjoys it.

    Why oh why do they not use a std double stack mag,eg ar10 or m14?
    I bought one but could not stand how far the mag stuck out for only ten rounds,don't get wrong-ten is plenty but it does stick out a long way for a ten shot mag.
    Sold it without even blooding it and built up a scout style blr.
