I HAD ONE OF THESE! SOME GUY THREW IT IN ON A TRADE! AND I THREW IT IN ON ANOTHER TRADE BECAUSE I DIDN’T WANT TO STOCK .22 HORNET!
(sob) $2100.00, untraceable.
I will now go and hang myself.

Scary Manifesto that keeps getting pushed down on the sidebar by filthy capitalism!
They say that Louis XIV had the inscription Ultima Ratio Regum cast into all the cannon of the French Army. It means “The Ultimate Argument of Kings,” and that always struck me as one of the most honest and up-front things any ruler or would-be ruler ever said. “We can dress it up prettier than this, but when it comes down to the unvarnished truth this is what it’s about: You’ll do as I say or I’ll send my goons to kill you.”
I thought about that for a long time. If there’s an ultimate argument, it seems only logical that there must be an ultimate answer. For years I thought the ultimate answer must be the bullets in my rifle, but it never seemed quite right. I’ve got bullets – he’s got frigging Cannon Balls. I mean, if there were three hundred million rifles throwing bullets at him, then maybe. But we all know that’s not going to happen. So if there’s an ultimate answer to his ultimate argument, it sure as hell ain’t bullets.
It finally came to me – and that’s when I abandoned the city and most of my stuff, and gave all that was behind me a good stiff Randian Shrug.
The ultimate answer to kings is not a bullet, but a belly laugh.

Well to make you feel better, what someone wants isn’t what it’s really worth.
I notice nobody bothered to bid after looking at his reserve price.
Dude! Seriously! Thats a USAF Survival Rifle, (AR5?) kick a$$ little rifle. A pre-cursor to the AR-7 take-down floats .22 people love and hate. Why someone doesn’t make
No need to hang yourself, I’ve pulled many cases of dumb a$$ myself. $2100 though – dang, thats a lot for even a collapsible .22 centerfire. A folding stock T/C Contender is far less expensive. Single shot though.

Ahem
IF you were to follow the link you would see that it is a bolt action H&R M4 in .22 Hornet.
Not to worry Joel I too have made more than one Oop$ in my life.
I once traded a 1957 Ford Ranchero [white with baby blue interior] in perfect running condition for a falling apart Studebaker truck because I “liked” the body style of the Stude’.
That 57 is now worth enough to buy the piece of land I cannot afford … sigh
