I regret most of the others as well but I think those two hurt the most
my friend has one that was a .222 but has been rebarreled to 7.62x39. such a lovely rifle. I like it more than the new CZ 527. the magizne sticking out just looks wrong. stock still looks good tho.Quote:

Sent from my workbench
BRNO Model 2 E, I still remember the serial number. Traded it on a POS Remington M597.
I would buy it back if I could find it. Had the rear sight base turned off, 3 screw to hold action in the stock and barrel shortened.
I can see a pattern here , note to oneself " never sell my cz / Bruno "
You sold a Model 2 for a M597, oh dear.......Quote:

Bitch won't sell it back to me either :( ........ she recons It's too nice for the likes of me.
Funny how It's ok to keep her supplied in reloads though.
She keeps hinting I might get it back in her will when she kicks the bucket, but seeing she's younger than me I'm not holding my breath on getting my grubby hands on it again anytime soon.
Least it's being used and looked after. :)

Who sells rifles? Can't think of any I want to get rid of, they all out shoot me. Mine are all reasonably budget rifles but they do the job; and they'd do a better job if I took them for walks more often..
Ex police Sako Vixen 222 - uni fees (to be fair bought with student loan!)
Browning A-Bolt 2506
Ruger PC40 and PC9
I can understand missing the pc9,I had the pc40 and should have bought a pc9
CZ 550 in 375 h&h
2 new Sako's , a 1980s Forester in 22-250 , and a Finnfire P94S hunter in 22lr
I hurt just reading that :)Quote:

Yeah , sorry , BUT I donot rate the new Finnfire II , as its not a re-introduced Finnfire , its just a re-branded Quad , Sako are just whoring out the Finnfire name & cashing in on it with new shooters that donot know the truth .
I will be getting a 2nd hand Finnfire soon , so the pain will maybe lessen .
Later Chris
In my early 40s I had collected about 20 sxs old English shotguns all makes, had muzzle loaders and pin fires as well, on top of that I had about another 10 rifles of various calibre's makes and models and three pistols, I sold the lot and gave it away as a mate topped himself for various reasons! I only got back into shooting 5 yrs ago and have some nice gear now. Do I miss them? No not really cause if you look hard enough there are equivalents out there.
I had the PC40 too but the PC9 was much nicer to shoot. I still have a mint deerfield rotary mag 44mag - can't part with that one.Quote:

OMG, back in 1994 when I lived in Palmerston North, I brought a Winchester Big Bore in .356, from a guy in Putaruru. He brought a Winchester Big Bore in .307 from the Winchester agent in Auckland, but in reality it was a .356. Wondered what was happening when the .307 ammo he was firing was printing like a shotgun!Quote:

Managed to pick up 3 boxes of .356 ammo from a gun shop in Gore. Later I got a large quantity of .307 brass and sized up in my FL die. Wish I'd never sold that rifle. A real powerhouse calibre, especially with 250gr pills.
