Hey Guys, Looking for a Sandhill Crane guide for AZ if anyone knows anybody. I have the Nov hunt which occurs over the Thanksgiving break so looking to go either the day before or day after. Thanksgiving is off limits this year due to missing it last year on my Strip hunt says my wife lol. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello all, I am putting up for sale my custom 338 RUM built by Brad and Keith Johns from Phoenix Custom Rifles. The gun is three years old and has never been fired due to deployments etc. At the same time this gun was built I also had them build a custom 6.5 SAUM which after load development by Brent Jacobs of Western Precision Rifles in Safford, it shoots about 1/4" groups at 100 yards; I am confident that this gun will do well below MOA with custom loads. Here are the specifics of the build: 28" stainless steel Bartlein cut rifled barrel American Precision Arms (APA) little bastard muzzle brake APA bottom metal LA for detachable magazines AICS magazine which is modified to fit 338 RUM case Defiance Rebel Long Action with fluted bolt and Defiance 20moa picatinny rail Jewel trigger Manners MCS T-2 stock (90% carbon) with custom Kryptek camo dip Vortex rings made by Badger Ordnance 5x25x56 Nightforce ATACR scope with 34mm tube and MOAR-T illuminated reticle (brand new) Desert Tan Cerakote I have decided to sell this gun because given my back issues with arthritis and the fact that this gun is a bit heavy at 13lbs I figured someone out there who is younger and willing to tote this bad boy around can put it to good use vice sitting in my gun safe (perhaps someone who has drawn that once in a lifetime Dec sheep tag :). In any case, I am now negotiable on the price of $5500 (would also consider a trade for a new or like new 20 or 28 ga O/U shotgun or side by side of equal value). I am also pricing this scope at my Mil/LE price point which anyone familiar with NF knows that discounts for their products are hard to come by. I prefer to sell the gun whole vice parting it out; it is being sold as is. The gun is local in Tucson and I am happy to meet and show you the gun. Cash or certified check which can be verified at a local AZ bank is the only form of payment. Any out of sale would be via FFL transfer and buyer would pay shipping and would also require funds to clear before shipping. My contact # is six one nine - 857- three one 26. Also, as an FYI, a carbon barrel on this gun would take it down to the 8.5 or 9 lb range which is doable but I don't want to put any more money into this gun.

wow, that is cool

SirShagalott, I have a NF 5.5x22x56 that I am looking to sell when I get back to Tucson in December for xmas leave (I am AD military) and if interested at the time I can email you pics. The scope is mounted on a Christensen Arms Carbon 1 hunter and my guess is I have around 300 rounds through the gun with the scope on it and there are no dings or scratches and the glass is crystal clear. I am the original owner and it was purchased from Bear Basin circa 2005 so it is non-zero stop which is why I am looking to sell it. I have a Kenton industries target turret on it now and the scope has always worked well but now I am into the MOA side of shooting so I plan on getting a new 5.5x22x50 or 56 NXS, haven't decided but this will be a great scope to anyone who buys it and of course I will allow a potential buyer to actually hold and look over the scope. Just figured I would through this out there since you made an honest effort to buy from a dirt bag it sounds like. In any case, I have not researched what the scope is worth but I can say I won't ask beyond what it is honestly worth. Cheers, Frank

I have an 8lb jug of unopened H1000 that I got a few weeks ago from Natchez shooting supply. I was holding it for a buddy but he said he picked up a couple pounds this past week in Montana so he is gonna pass. The price is $205.00 which is splitting the cost of both shipping and the hazmat fee. If interested, please PM me at 619-857-three one two six. Cash only and since I am in Tucson and shipping would incur extra fees (you would end up paying twice for shipping) it is better to do an in person deal. Let me know if you have any questions.

I have purchased other items from Bruno's i.e., Jewell triggers and the deal was good but I bet I have been on their back order list for H1000 for close to two years now and so long in fact I had forgotten about it until now. I now have enough powder to last me quite a long time so if I ever do get that call from Bruno's and I decide to go ahead and get it I will turn it around and list it here for CW members. 3rd gen shooting supply is where I got my 1lb bottles and I got the notification of stock via gunbot.

Sorry so long to reply but have been off the grid for a while until today. I sold it a couple weeks ago to a CW member. I got it from Natchez shooting supplies and they are a great company to work with. I have had better luck finding the 1 lb bottles vice the 8lb jugs but when I got the call this was in I figured what the heck and picked it up. Keep your eye out on gunbot as that is how I found the 1lb bottles.

Any pictures?

I am building a custom 338 RUM and I am looking for brass or loaded ammo which I can disassemble and use to make custom loads.

we may be looking at the same thing on Gunbroker. I am finding some loaded ammo around town for 60 for 20 rounds but hate to break down ammo just for brass but may be the only option; trying to get to 100 pieces which should last me quite a while if I only use for checking zero and hunting.

Call Brad or Keith Johns at Phoenix Custom Rifles, they are in Tempe and their work is good

Ladies and Gents, After learning that my Father-in-Law would like to send me his 2012 Polar Craft classic 16 I have decided to put my slightly used Lowe V1467 up for sale. I purchased the boat in April of this year from Cabelas in Phx along with the trailer and then the motor from Catalina Marina and have only used this boat twice (once in big lake and once in Patagonia lake) so my guess is I have about 3 or 4 hrs on the motor. The boat rides excellent and the motor is quiet and perfect for high mountain lakes (I got the 9.9 HP since that is the max HP you can have on most if not all of the mountain lakes in AZ). The pkg will come with the following: Boat, Motor, Stainless Steel Motor Loc, Trailer, 5gal Yamaha gas tank, folding boat seat and mounting bracket, Minn Kota Endura Max 55/42 trolling motor, spare tire, boat cushions, life vests, transducer mounting bracket for a fish finder, rod holders, anchor, anchor chain with rope and deep cycle AGM battery (it is ready to fish). I have over $8,300.00 in this boat and I am willing to sell for $7,500. This is a great deal and I encourage you to do research on the quality of Yamaha boat Motors along with Lowe boats, they are second to none. Lastly, I am not interested in trades and would prefer to deal locally. I can be reached at 619-857-three one two six. Vu, if you are out there, you can give a shout out as a bass guy on the quality of this set-up. I also plan to list this on Craig's list and possibly boat trader. Don't miss your chance on a great boat combo that will provide years of reliable service. P.S., the boat is rated for up to 25HP which will move this boat along very good, just watch the YouTube videos out there of 25HP motors.

Dropping price to $6,800. Good deal for all new stuff.

My guess is they know big fish are in that particular stream based on the giant net he is carrying, most nets for streams are 12" but still cool to see, especially the release ;-)

Bump for labor day weekend, this boat needs to be on the lake with a cold beer and a wet line :-)

Forgot to list the boat securing straps on the stern as well as the chrome cleats to tie up with (one aft and one forward).

Yeah, there is something nice about hitting the field with and O/U, just a very classy way to hunt in my opinion. Nice gun for sure.

At the urging of my buddy, I have created my own acct on CW.com in order to list my Leica CRF 1200 range finder for sale (he used his acct a few months ago to help me sell my Swarovski 15x56s). I recently purchased the Leica 1600-B so now I don't need my 1200s. They are in perfect working order and only used a couple times a year since I purchased them new. There are a few scratches on the outside which has that soft touch plastic coating but it does not hinder their performance in anyway and the glass surfaces are perfect. Please feel free to email at viperfp@hotmail.com if you are interested or call me at 619-857-three one two six. I live in Tucson but my # is my old San Diego # which I kept when I moved here. I am not interested in trades and prefer only to deal with face to face customers.

SOLD, thanks G and happy hunting

Okay folks, I decided to get busy and go through my closet and gun safe to see if there are other items I don't need and I found my Badlands 2200 pack. These go for around $270 new and this particular pack has been used less than a half dozen times. I bought this pack new and then the following season I bought an Eberlestock pack and have used it ever since (this bag stayed in the closet). This bag is in like new condition with no rips, tears or blemishes to be seen. Hunting season is right around the corner so why not add this bad to your gear list for a good price; it will not let you down. Email me at viperfp@hotmail.com or call me at 619-857-three one two six if you are interested. I would like to sell vice trade.

Correction, Vu ;-)
