Looking For a Rifle

[TWN]

Where do you guys look when you're trying to find a specific gun? I am looking for a used Remington 700 Mountain rifle in 270 Win. Long story, needs to be exactly that. I'm pretty much limited to google search as far as technology goes so I get to gunbroker or gunsamerica, thats about the end of the search. I'm sure there's one in a pawn shop or somewhere for sale but at a loss to find it. Thanks, TWN

Exactly which “700 mountain rifle” are you looking for? I know 700’s.

I know a guy that has that exact rifle. Doesn’t shoot worth a damn. He’d probably be willing to part with it. ;:;rofl

 

[TWN]

wood stock, blued barrel- not interested in the stainless/synthetic models. DBM is good. What other options am I missing? thanks

Guns International is my first go-to. Surprised to see only one custom available in 7Rem. They're still worth keeping in mind.

What you need is a friend who works on the road and knows every pawn shop, hardware store, and sporting goods retailer in 4 states and visits each of them regularly. Or so I’m told.

Gun Broker is my huckleberry. I have bought 3 rifles through there over the last dozen or so years. Just picked up a 700 ADL 270 built in 1980. It is just like it came out of the box.

Unless you find one on a shelf somewhere, you’ll have to be willing to pay what someone wants for one. I haven’t run across anything like that in recent months. It’s a sellers market for guns at the moment and Remington’s are selling for higher because of the unknown about whether they will still be making firearms going forward as well. You could throw out a WTB ad on some websites, but I’d only buy from a member with street cred. Good luck.

put a wtb ad on 24hourcampfire.com. Tons of users there and just about everything you could want.

Looks like Lunk found exactly what you want. You need to jump in now only a few hours left.

thats sorta tempting

Thinking the same... maybe I need a .270

 

[Zogman]

Everyone needs more than one 270. One is a gun that bounces around in your pickup 24/7.

​Looks like someone jumped in with the opening bid.

Sold for $764. Which one of you cowboys was the winner?
