If I had an NRA ballcap, huge aviators with yellow lenses, a photography vest, a Buick century, and some newbalance sneakers (the all white kind) I would be all over that deal.

When did they start shipping with a crappy brake vs the flash hider? I'm probably the only one that likes the look of the Ruger flash hider though.
 Probably doesnt matter anyway though, most of the pics I've seen its changed out anyway...mine has a Surefire brake on it.

No stripper clip guide kills it for me. I have a .308 Ishapore that I am going to mount a scout scope on. It is already been sporterized by someone and the 12 round magazine and smooth/fast action is pretty nice on the Enfields. The accuracy will only be so so, but that doesn't phase me as I am not that great of a shot anyway. |

Are the barrels threaded? I've liked those rifles for a long time... but the price was in the "Daaaaaaaamn!" range.
Probably won't buy one anytime soon, tho. Selling my first house and buying my second has cost me a bit. Gotta recover from that stuff first! |

Scout scopes... give me a good low power variable standard scope instead.
You can mount in the standard position with these though. |

I love it on paper but then I handled one. Thought the bolt action was sloppy and it rattled around when working the bolt open/closed. Anyone else get this impression?
