Yikes, for that price, I could drive down and pick it up, get it repaired and bring it back to you for probably $400. what kind of a shop did you go to? man talk about mark up.

I can take one out in about 20 min, depending how tight rusted the bolts are.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
