    The talleys I bought, I got a guy at hunting and fishing to put them on and when I went to send my rifle away to be threaded the rings have been screwed on too tight and fucked it, such a cunt man but awhell. Put the standard ones back on. Now I have to sight it back in.

    I'm sure you'll find something used but in good condition to bushpigize, (Oh look I just made a new word).

    Or are you gonna go new?

    Hey bro because of my lack of experience with rifles and such I wouldnt know what to look for when I buy a used one. Decided to just buy a new one. Im by no means well off but Id rather save for abit then buy a lemon as such. Cheers

    tits tyres or triggers....if its got em it will be fun to use and cost you money.

    all three can be had new or 2nd hand
    all three can be good or bad from new
    the trick with vechiles or firearms (sheilahs not so much) is to get someone more knowledgeable than yourself to help you check them out BEFORE shelling out your $$$$$
    rifles and cars come with a concrete guarantee...once you buy and walk across concrete footpath they are guaranteed to be worth less than you paid.
    for a bush carbine.......you can get away with less spec than your long range slayer..eg mine is a elcheapho norinco 7.62x39mm bolt action and she kills deer,pigs and wallabies just fine n dandy UNDER 150 yards...thats what I got it for and also for young fellas and or a borrow rifle. a bit like the old rust bucket banger down the driveway,nothing flash but does the job.

    What about when you cross the concrete with your hands full and bump into a pear of large pearler titis!!, You drop the new rifle and stuff up the scope!!. PS , Sorry guys, the pic was censored.
