    Default Where's your favorite place to shop?

    I know there are more out there asking the same thing......

    I have a list of places to send a copy of my C&R license, but I don't want fifteen million sales flyers on my door step every day. It's bad enough with the two places I use now. 5 or more emails a week from one alone.

    What are some of your favorite web pages or stores? Especially ones that you KNOW you are getting a good deal.

    Thanks
    Greg

    Kind of funny I guess, but I now have over 20 places that I do a once over of on a weekly basis.

    Gun kits, C&Rs, misc items...... I have around 15 parts kits to build now and am always on the look out for a deal.....

    My biggest "cool" find was from Centerfire on their Commission 88 bolt actions. If you saw those and didn't get one, bummer. Check back, they still get some in stock from time to time (I ordered another one last week). Anyway, I got one and it ended up having a brand spanking new "in the white" barrel. A 116 yr old rifle with a new barrel...... I'm not even sure it got re chambered to the 8x57mm. Some gimp grabbed onto it with a pipe wrench and left jaw marks, but I think I can clean them up some.
    It also had a pretty nice stock and was only missing one bolt (for the trigger guard) that I had a spare of.

    Now I have an almost matching set - a Kar 88 (carbine model) and a full size GEW 88.

    Keep checking the links.......
