Unless you're shooting politician's thats a bit steep. Put your money into lobbying and buy a lever or pump (if legal). Remington makes a "patol rifle", in .556 that is AR 15 mag compliant, but pump action. Not a bad set up to look at. I haven't really read reviews, or know if they are legal there, but its far less than 1/10th the price.

Seems fair.  Wait...  What???  How much? :o :o  Hmmmm. :P 

Phil, get your Class D and Haz and I will ship you parts to assemble on your kitchen table.  Then you sell 'em and we'll split the profits. 

Can we ship you parts?

What's the deal with that Remington 700 Police with the scope with the steering wheel on the side of it? Scroll about halfway down.  Bill T.

I assume that in the dark of night it allows making fine adjustments without a visual reference?

It looks like a side focus adjustment. A really big one!   Bill T.

crusader  hehe thought that   

however getting the lowers in would be an issue  :(  and getting my D class is a dream  as I don't qualify 


FQ  have thought that     I am looking at getting a leaver in 357 mag  for Cowboy Lever Action Silhouette matches  and Pigs  :)

the buggered thing is  we can have Pump rifles  and leaver actions  however Pump Shotguns and S/A's  are effectively banned
