I wanna recurve, so...

Was that shotgun in a flood? I would suspect more going on there than a return spring and surface rust. The gas system for this shotgun is somewhat notorious. Buyer beware.

Keep your smart *** comments and opinions somewhere else.

If you're not interested in making a trade with him on it then why even make a comment at all?

Good luck on the trade op

Question: Why not go ahead and spend the $13 to have it fixed if it was already in the hands of a gunsmith?

I didn't bother pointing this out earlier, but I will now.

Stuff like this belongs on the Classifieds, not in the regular discussion forums. If you want to get the attention of the trad group, then post a link to your classifieds post.

Agreed.

Herein lies the problem. The classifieds are not classified. It is one big heap of stuff for sale. It is maddening unless you just like to sort through ninety nine things to find that one thing that you are looking for. I am seeing more posts where guys try to avoid the classifieds and just go straight to their target group. I can't say that I blame them.

Yep, it's a madhouse for sure.

To avoid any problems though, most of the guys in the trad forum still post their ads in the classifieds, and then link the ads in a post here. Seems to be working out good for them.

The way I look at it is... it is what it is... and you didn't have to pay for it.

About the only thing I am going to ask Michael is that he not get rid of the Trad Forum like he has contemplated doing in the past. I argued our existence then, and I'll continue to argue it some more. The main reason isn't that I don't want to see compound stuff, or any other BS elitism that some people cast on us from time to time... but because there is enough difference between the two disciplines that a person who wants to learn and chat about trad needs a community that will help them along. I learned about trad here, got bit by the trad bug here, and want to make sure TBH continues to have a place where a person can make that jump, or dabble, whatever if they want to.

That is what I get for not actually paying attention to all the rules.

For as long as I have been here (only a handful of years), it is has been a common practice for the trad forum... and most likely because the trad forum is pretty small in comparison to most other forums. Unless the mods aren't seeing them (which may be the case) they might just be turning a blind eye because those threads don't really turn into anything more than just the link (trad regulars are pretty good about just clicking the link and taking discussion on the item over there.)

Not interested in the shotgun but I have the bow for you. It's a Samick Sage, 45#s. I bought it a couple years ago but didn't have the time for a new hobby. I've got some Gold Tip Trad arrows that come with it also.

[DWA]

I'll trade my 45# bear to Rick then he can trade it to u. 3 way everybody is happy

haha that's ind of what I figured. See the trad posts about that a lot so must not be too big of a deal.

You can always use the search function and limit it to classifieds
