Looks good Irving. Now we need to get it out and run it!

You should write your name on your stock with a Sharpie so we don't get them confused.

What makes it a Walmart only model exactly?

I own 2 axis rifles, a .223 and .308. They seem the same at Walmart as they are everywhere else.

For mine I installed metal rods in the fore grip running the direction of the barrel. Set those in with epoxy then free floated the barrel. I would to pick up a boyds.

I don't think he was indicating it was a Wal-mart only model, only that is where he, and I, happened to purchase them.

[spleify]

Yes it's a model built by Savage specifically for Walmart. I dont remember the exact model number but it isn't even listed on their site. I called and asked what the deal was and they said it's a special model only sold at Walmart.

Similar to the Federal 510 and 510b. It's the exact same product but Federal changes the name and the box and adds the "b" to it and it's only sold at Walmart.

Hmmm, news to me. Good to know.

What are your thoughts on the Millet TRS-1? Was thinking of putting one on one of my AR's

I'll chime in since I have shot with it:

For the money, it is a heck of a scope. It is missing some of the features I generally like, but at a price point much lower than those features demand.

For example, my complaints:

1. Mil reticle, MOA turrets
2. SFP
3. Lack luster reticle

But for the price, I like everything else, and it is a fraction of the cost of a scope that would satisfy my complaints.

Yep, what J said. For the money its a great scope. I think for just a few bucks more if your looking for a good budget scope look at Hawke Optics. They're GREAT scopes in that price range.
