I doubt it was the moderators. More than likely Sportshot deleted his own thread. Rick ~~~~Texas

Rick your right Sportshot removed his post. Don't know who he is but wish he would stay out of my posts. I didn't think it was funny at all. Good talking to you again. Thanks Jim

I see were "Brucestorey" said he would buy the wood and the trigger. Did he ever give you an acceptable offer?

Rick as of yet I have not heard another word from Bruce. I sent him a P.M. and also a E-Mail. Do you know him? Thanks Jim

Jim,

I replied to your email. Sorry it took me so long.

Bruce

Stock and trigger still available. Bruce withdrew his offer when I gave him the price. All good. Jim

I'm interested in the MX-3 wood. When you say the stock is still available is the forearm still available too? If so would the forearm include the iron? What are you asking for the set? I live in San Jose so I'm semi local.

Thanks, Nick

Nick: The add states that receiver and forend iron are to be sold together.

Nick like Rick said the receiver and forend iron will be sold together. I'm not selling any part of the gun until the stock is sold. Nick I have been getting offers of $700 for this stock so I am almost to the point of not selling it. These people should call Dennis Devalt and get a price from him. I'm sure you would pay $1500 just for the wood if he even had anything like this available, then you would have checkering . fit and finish, jones adjuster.adjustable comb etc. etc. for a total cost in the area of $5000 to $6000. With that in mind if you would like to make me a resonable offer please do so. Sorry for the rant. If you are truly interested in the stock at a reasonable price call me,E-Mail me direct or send me a Private Message thru this site

Jim, instead of living in a passive-aggressive mode (like you do with all of the guns you've offered, including that M12 build), why don't you set a price you want ... or if you want to 'auction' it, put it on GB or AA?

Too fast. If you did not accept $700 for that buttstock, you are living in a dreamworld. It is waaayyy altered from original, and does not live in the elevated world of Dennis DeVault, and is short. Next time you have a soft comb made up have them use some old pice of oak as a base and have your walnut comb made adj as well. Then the stock will retain greater value. Soft combs are great, but no one wants them till they are beat in the face. Adn your comb says you were beat in the face. Not a good way to convince a guy that yoru gun is a life time shooter.

MX3 shooter.

Cool vise

Mia glad you have all the answers. Next time I talk to Greg Hissim that did the soft touch I'll inform him that his work is not up to your standards. As always your coments are cherish. Thanks Jim

Jim, you're overly sensitive and out of line. From a re-sale point, Jack is exactly correct, and his comments had nothing to do with any quality of work.

You are trying to sell used lumber. Jeeze.

Do you have some problem telling people what you want for your bits & orts?

Ask?

'Fair' price?

Bottom dollar?

Bob

Did you mean Greg Hissem? Or is there a Greg Hissim too? Is it a left hand stock? I ask because I see that the comb adjustments are on the left side of the comb, hitting the cheek of a right hand shooter.

Hey don't let these guys drag you down, you are sure you know what you're doing, like some others on the forum, you've got it figured out. It's a nice gun and if no one but you really knows what it should be worth, then you can just hang on to it, 'cause you know you're right. Don't get mad, get even - take the gun with you to the grave.

You can always take solace in the old Frank Sinatra lyric: "I did it my way"...
