Meanwhile in Marion, VA...
My addition to me arsenal...for no particular reason other than I wanted it.
In addition it was on sale at my local Rural King.
I got some rosewood grips for it...they should be here next week. I also got an original Super Wrangler 5½" black holster...I pick it up later today.
I loves the .22 WMR.

Re: Meanwhile in Marion, VA...
No. Man, that’s a good price too. There’s a local store that has all the parts to build a AR’s with a wide variety of options. I’ll have to ask if they have any Del-ton parts. I’m probably going to start picking up parts in another couple of months.HokieJoe wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 8:41 pmHave you seen the Del-ton 316L? A friend of mine just bought one for $553 last week.

Thought of you last week. A friend of mine was telling a story about his daughter's house cat putting him in the hospital for days and on morphine. LOL. "I've had two knees completely replaced and didn't need morphine!~".
So I put (the dead dog) on her doorstep!

Yeah, I bought a 145° hedger attachment for my Stihl Kombi when I was there last. They've a better selection than Lowe's or Home Depot for some items.

I am on rare occasions down that direction not too far from Kong, and may just pull over to see the one in Wytheville. We have "Tractor Supply" as a rural style outlet near RVA, but Rural King looks like a Tractor Supply on 'roids.HokieJoe wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2024 2:46 amRiverguyVT wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2024 2:16 amI've never heard of "Rural King".
