Here's my Savage Model 12 VSS in 22-250 topped with a Vari-X III 6.5 - 20. Once I've shot out the barrel, it'll need to wear a 308, or a 260 Rem, or a ..........





Here's my Winchester Model 61. I don't shoot it too much any more, but it still does just fine.



Since there aren't any SKS's here yet, I thought I'd add one. It's a Chinese model I bought almost 20 years ago while I was a poor college student (the stock is recent vintage).

My pride and joy.

A DS Arms SA58 carbine with Duracoat finish.


My favorite handgun


The gun I still need to get refinished. It shoot as accurately as a lazer beam.

A little bit of a change in pace from all the tactical stuff. This is a single-shot bolt action .22 made way back in 1947. This rifle is more than three times my age.

If I remember correctly, the blue book on this rifle in the condition it is in is about $65-$75. The story behind it is a woman came into the shop I was working at, and had this rifle she had inherited from her father. She was not into shooting, and wanted to see if it was worth anything so she could sell it. Finding that it was only worth that much in the book, I told her I thought that for the $35 we could offer her, she'd be better to just hold onto it since it was a pretty nice little rifle.

She didn't want it- and basically said that if I thought it was a nice rifle and would appreciate it, I could have it. I asked my boss to approve of it, and he did, so she gave it to me and I graciously accepted it.

In short- it has become my favorite shooter. I probably average about 200-300 rounds per week with it since I got it probably about 8 or 9 months ago. At 30 feet, it will put every shot in a dime if I do my part and use decent ammo.

I wish it had aperture sights, but the ones on it aren't bad at all. At about 100 yards, I can hit a 4" gong with some degree of regularity from a sitting position. It doesn't always eject reliable, sometimes it takes a little flick on my finger to help it out. The safety reactivated every time you work to the bolt. I love it anyway.

If it breaks, I'll fix it. If it costs as much as the rifle is worth- I'd still fix it. If it is beyond repair, I'll find one like it to shoot and keep this one for parts.

My FN PBR .308 in its Manners T4A stock. It's an old pic; she sports a AAC 51T brake adapter now. This rifle is the most accurate thing dollar for dollar.
