Someone should call the police , cuz it sounds like you stole that gun "wink wink"
I'd give ya 160 and 5 gal of gas for it ,even let you keep the can , just keep that in mind when youre standing along the road , and once again "wink wink" , but I really would

shaner, that rifle has good looking wood on it, you got a good deal with the wood and new sights, i filled up with diesel today,i paid 4.05 per gallon, so 160.00 at 4.05 is only 39.5 gallons of fuel, it will be gone in next two to three days, but the handi-rifle will still be there, i also fell off the wagon last week and bought a like new 308 handi-rifle, which i didn't need, now i have two 308's, good luck on your move back to Ohio.

Dang, Shaner -- as the kids say, suh-WEET!!! You got a really good one there. NEF must have gotten a load of that tiger-stripe birch a while back; I bought a Monte Carlo stock from a fellow GBO member that looks just like it.

Best of luck on the move! Looking forward to hearing how it shoots . . .

Quite an adventure you've been having these last couple of years Shane. You're a good guy, have been helpful to me more than once, and we've had some good talks and good deals between us.

Good on ya for making it back safely.

Cheers

well dpe.ahoy thats a lot of the reason i came back  theres to many people in tucson  for me , and a lot of  them i wasntto fond of , the gang stuff  crime , workin in a spanish speakin country  ahahha i came back to a town of 4000 to live , all rural areas where when yu hear shots fired they are usually  either target shooting , or varmint hunting if it isnt a hunting season,  not at pedro out on the street , there were several killings right  close to me , with in blocks of  my apt,even though i carried a xd45compact bout anytime i left the house , except working ( against company policy) i still wasmt to sure  and  then i had to work in south  tucson ,on a daily basis , and at least once a week in nogalas , the border town of az and mex just turned out not to be my cup of tea ,,,,  the 160 cost was a deal to me i did a lot of biz with that guy in the time i was there,  he was tryin to sucker me in to stayin i think ahahah

Shaner, I heard that.  These darn dealers want to keep their addicts around to make money on!  Hope there's another good one in your area to feed the "fix" ;D  I know what you mean about the crime, even here in Montana we have some of it happening in this town.  I live in Billings and see alot of the drugs and some crime here as well.  Don't think you can totally get away from it. :(  Sure worry about my kids growing up in this day and age. :(  Looking for land out of town to have a place to go hide on time off.  Only about 8-900,000 in the whole state, but 10% live here.  Take care and good luck back ther. :)  DP.
