Forum rules


As with any great game there are rules.

1: This is a Family Site that means:
__ a: No sexually explicit pictures or avaters.
__ b: No vulgar profanity. (Keep it PG)
__ c: No personal insults (Argue the point, not the person.)

2: Keep all political/religious debates civil. Different viewpoints are good. Hating someone for that different is bad.

3: No "smack-talk" of someone elses gun. Every gun is a Heirloom to it's owner.

4: No spamming or fly-by-night sales. This isn't free-advertising.com! Go sell your stuff somewhere else.

5: If you don't like guns or shooting hobbies, go somewhere else! There are other places to go that feel that way and would love you to join them. Let us enjoy our hobby!

6: Have fun! You're here to relax and enjoy yourself. Keep it light and don't get caught up in the gun-smoke!

Just thought I'd tell ya all how I "almost" came home with a sweet lookin case hardened finish .45 at 5.5" when I was buyin the Rossi lever action the other night. :quiet:

While I was waitin on my background check to come back I was lookin at all the other toys and came across the only BB Heritage they had. :shocked1:

Felt as nice as I remembered it. Problem was it seemed a bit high priced to me? :dunno:
They had it NIB for 449.00 :huh1:
Is that close to what you guys see em go for in your neck of the woods?

Was it case hardened, or case colored? Big difference.

Usually less than $400 here. They are nice guns.

Yes it does. :clap2: I don't know if it's possible to tell one from the other, and I don't think it makes a practical difference in the durability of the gun.

So long as the finish doesn't wear off easily I wouldn't care. :wink1:
