    Default My new gun...

    Actually, I haven't bought it yet...but I just saw the BLR 270 WSM- then did a little research on it...and I am drooling. The post here a week ago or so about a guy's love for his lever action made me start missing my old 30/30 marlin- so I went looking for one. Instead, I found the BLR 270 WSM! It was like when I first saw a Victoria's Secret catalog when i was 16! Holy smokes...I didnt realize a gun could get such a reaction out of someone...I had to leave the gunshop!! Anyone own one of these or shot one?

    DM, seems you been "bit" bad!!!!!!!!!

    Looked it up, cool rifle, good ballistics, and accuracy in a lever action.

    I dont know much about the 270 WSM, but I loved the BLR 308 I owned! I wish I never got rid of that one. I owned a Japanese version and always thought I wanted the older Belgium version. I got rid of mine and when I found a belgum made one, I didnt like the feel or balance and didnt buy it.

    That right there is why you NEVER get rid of a gun. You only buy more. Now, go stand in front of the mirror and repeat this seven times. I will never get rid of a gun. Go on...

    You know, I've regretted all but one. That one was a Mossberg 500. I know I'll take crap for bad mouthing a 500 and even more if I told the story about why I was (and am still) happy to have it gone.

    I sold my first shotgun back in HS, I sold a Ruger #1 not that long ago, I've sold or traded several Savage 99s over the years and I've traded and sold a few handguns as well. I'd say though that I've done well to hold on to most of them, but I do miss those lost loves!

    @Dogman. Well, it's afternoon...?

    I've traded several guns. At the time of the trades, it always made sense. Now........not quite as much for all of them.
