Forum rules
Posting of negative comments in the Gunshop section could bring unwanted criticism on the forum, having said that it is important to let members know if dealings with a Gunshop were less than ideal for you. To that end we will allow what will be known as the 'Scotsgun Ruling'

The Scotsgun Ruling:

>Add Gun Shop here<

"As I've yet to have a 'positive' experience there, I'll refrain from commenting further."

Beyond that please take it up with the Gunshop, if you do resolve the issue in a agreeable manner let us know!

This rule applies to the entire forum.

A big :good: for Hilton Shooting Services. After a pleasant chat and having all my questions answered, I parted with £75 (including RFD transfer) for a Marlin 989 M2* (M1 Carbine lookalike) with original Weaver V22-A 3-6x scope! :shakeshout:

Absolutely cracking service from Clive and thank you Ritchies in Grantown-on-Spey for accepting it for me. :clap:

*Pictures to follow in the Rimfire section once I've stripped it and given it a bit of a tidy up.

Quite chuffed with it. Not sure about magazine but otherwise it seems in original condition and in fairly good nick - even has the detachable rear sight which seems to be very rare occurrence.

According to the serial number it was made in 1977, so only a little younger than me! :lol:
