To be quite honest, I am much more interested in hearing the "pros and cons" of Browning rifles from Bama.....
Well, I'm not Bama, but as far as I'm concerned, one of the major pros is that Browning rifles, in general, tend to be very accurate out of the box, without any modifications...that includes the A-Bolt, BLR, and BAR. I mean, most any gunshop owner, gunsmith, and gun writer will say so - my experience with them has not proven them wrong.
They may rust in the Alaskan salt water, the trigger guard may break if dropped on a rock just the wrong way, etc. but dadgummit, they'll shoot accurately enough right out of the box! What more could you ask for in an off-the-shelf gun for less than $800 (for the "pretty" ones, i.e. Medallion, Safari, etc.)?
2muchgun,
Actually, sir, you may be a nice enough person in real life - I don't know...but the following statement from that other thread that you mentioned about ticking Browning owners off is what started the downslide in attitude towards you and your contributions Quote:
I've MUCH to offer on the particulars.....Just wantin' to see if anyone thinks they can float their own boat before I sink it....Anyone?......
Can you not see how that just comes across as "ugly" from the get-go? How do you expect people to even consider your points of view when you begin with a statement like that?
I'll rise above the potty training going on here and will not respond any more on this issue.
