Bpursell Report post Posted April 4, 2015 I'm looking for a rifle to keep in the truck. Looking for iron sights, to fit into a scabbard. Open to make, model, caliber (save for .22). Mainly, something that if it gets stolen I will not be hart broken. So price is a factor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murfys69law Report post Posted April 4, 2015 Don't have any but i would suggest a Marlin 30/30 Should be able to pick one up fairly cheap and they shoot good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deserttrecker Report post Posted April 4, 2015 I used to keep a Norinco SKS in my pickup, to me they used to be the ideal truck gun. That was when you could still find em for under $200. My vote would be a mosin. If youre gonna spend the scratch on a marlin 30-30, you could build an AR for just a little bit more these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bpursell Report post Posted April 4, 2015 Thanks for all the info and suggestions. I think maybe a 30-30, will work best. Just priced the marlin and it is pretty cheap even new. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
