That's sweet Jer. If you had to grab one rifle in SHTF would you take that or an AR15?
Finally picking up a new EDC flashlight to replace my Streamlight that died.

That's a good question. I think the AR15 still has the edge but that gap grows smaller and smaller by the day. Perhaps before I own it too much longer it could be my go-to rifle for SHTF but at this point I'm not quite sure I'm ready to go to that status with it. Now, if it were closer than an AR15 and time were a concern I would be quite content with using it in that role and before too much longer it may just become my go-to rifle. The balance and compactness for having a 16" barrel still is SO nice. My HD rifle is probably my 9" 300 Blackout running 220gr suppressed but this sucked is a few inches shorter overall than even than. Balances a lot better with a suppressor hanging out over the end and not to mention with those big 40rd Pmags in that pic too. The Tavor just has an awful lot going for it.
Obviously this was necessary based on my last purchase.

Thanks Tom! (thvigil11)
Pre-hung 24" wide door from Habitat for only $30. It's even solid core.

^ You're getting to be a knife whore. Nice Busses !!!
I picked up a S&W 22a-1 pistol on Saturday evening for $152 + $10bgc fee... from Cabela's if you can believe it. I was very surprised to see it, as I was not previously familiar, and intended to get a Ruger MarkII/III or Browning Buckmark style .22lr, which would have been twice the price. It will be used almost exclusively for training new shooters, assuming it's reliable enough. I should be able to get out and shoot it this coming weekend. Anyone have any experience with this model before?

Mine took a while to break in (lots of stovepipes, feed jams), then it was fine. It's been a fun shooter, and nicely dependable since. Had several mis-fires last range trip (primer struck, no ignition), but was able to attribute that to the ammo.
I'd buy another, without hesitation at that price.
Only potential drawback as a training piece might be bulkiness of grip, for smaller hands, and mag release location (just because it's slightly different than most).
Pros: Weight makes it easy on recoil, without feeling heavy, and slides on these are generally pretty easy to manipulate.

I appreciate your reply crays. I had my suspicions that it might have ftf/fte issues, but i'll take it apart and polish the ramp, square the extractor, etc.. it is extremely lightly used, so i imagine the first owner just got fed up with it before the break-in period was met... I'll shoot some mini mags through it too help it along too ;). For the price, I was ok with spending an hour or two tuning it up before using it anyways. I agree 100% with your pros, and can accept the drawbacks you mention as well.
Glad I could offer up some useful info.
I know mine had me pretty frustrated at first, and it sat at the back of the closet for while.
Ironically, I must have put it away right as it was becoming a shooter, because when I finally got around to pulling it back out, and giving it a good cleaning, it's been reliable since.
Go figure...
Happy Shooting and congrats on a good score!

Speaking of art, I collect a lot of odd/cool/strange art, here is a piece I ordered yesterday.

Yea I love it and was glad when he decided to do a limited edition print of the original. I also have this one from the same artist. Just got it framed a few weeks ago.
