    6 arc or 6.5 grendel

    To make it worse, I even said I was wanting to buy the rifle for my dad for a Christmas present because it’s his dream gun. Then you get a worthless pos like that taking it as an opportunity to try to scam $2k. Pretty discouraging

    6 arc or 6.5 grendel

    What a piece of trash. Wish I could Thanos snap scammers off the face of the earth. His account isn’t showing up for me now though so I think he got banned

    No the scammer’s username is orangeblu. The one who responded to your post. Stupid username should’ve been my first clue

    6 arc or 6.5 grendel

    Yeah, he’s a scammer just posting enough content to get clearance to get in the classified ads to try to scam people. He claimed to have the exact rifle I’m looking for and then I found pictures of that same rifle at the same angles on a different website from last year he photoshopped a...

    Just had a piece of trash try to scam me. Claimed to have the rifle I was looking for. Found the pictures of the rifle he sent me with the same serial number on a different website and he photoshopped a different background onto it

    Attempted scammer alert - orangeblu

    Posted an WTB ad last night and got a message at 4:30 this morning from orangeblu claiming to have the rifle I was looking for. Below are the messages and pictures he sent to me and the pictures I found on another website from last year with the same rifle and serial number he photoshopped a...

    WTS/WTT Be Careful

    This is what I’m afraid of since I only just made an account to look for a rifle on here I’m wanting to buy for a Christmas present. Totally understandable though. Also have no idea how to go about actually making the purchase while making sure I’m not getting scammed if someone does happen to...

    WTB Barrett Fieldcraft 7mm-08

    Figure this is a long shot, but I’m looking to buy a Barrett Fieldcraft in 7mm-08 for a Christmas present. Wanting one with the non threaded barrel. If you have one you’re willing to sell or know someone who does, let me know!

    Maven vs Leupold

    I went with a Maven RS.1.2 on my new elk rifle and barely considered the leupold. These were my reasons. Leupold: much more expensive for comparable models and have heard they’ve been having tracking issues in recent years. Maven RS.1.2: Great quality scope with no major negative reviews...

    Maven, Leupold, Trijicon, NF

    I have a Christensen arms mesa in 7mm rem mag and originally bought the Maven RS.5 because they didn’t have the 1.2 in stock. Immediately after mounting the scope I realized it was HUGE for that rifle, and that rifle isn’t exactly small. So I sent it back and decided I’d just wait for the 1.2...

    Oregon hunting guide killed by accidental discharge

    I agree. I chewed his ass every time I saw him do it, but the friendship saved him from any well deserved ass beatings. Although I kept waiting for him to intentionally point a gun at me to try to make a point and that “get out of jail free card” was getting tore up on the spot.

    Christensen Mesa FFT off to a bad start.

    Yeah, I agree. Just hope they actually do something to fix the problem instead of denying there is a problem and then charging you for it. My next step, if the bondstrike’s didn’t group well, was going to be a glass bedding job. Which I still may do. If I had it to do over, I would not buy a...

    Christensen Mesa FFT off to a bad start.

    If the only problem you’re having is accuracy, try some heavier bullets. I could only get 2 out of 8 different rounds to group well and they were the heaviest bullets I could get (Norma bondstrike and Berger hybrid) without paying for custom loads at $90 a box. Also, I’ve heard that if they can...

    Oregon hunting guide killed by accidental discharge

    I’ve all but completely cut him off because of it. We used to be best friends and got each other through some tough times, but I refuse to subject myself to the dangerous stupidity anymore.

    Christensen Mesa FFT off to a bad start.

    My personal reason was they seem to be the only manufacturer that offers rifles that aren’t cheap/ugly looking, gaudy af and have an fugly muzzle brake or threaded barrel on the end. Mine does have a muzzle brake, but it is seamless and can get a seamless thread protector if I want to take it...

    Oregon hunting guide killed by accidental discharge

    Agreed. I’ve got a “friend” who muzzle sweeps people every time he handles a gun and then acts like everyone is being ridiculous when they tell him not to because “it’s unloaded” and “it’s not going to just go off.” That same guy has shot a hole through the floor of his house in the middle of a...
