Get your checkbook out...Big Time $

Most of stuff I've seen go at auction at CMP has been absolutely outrageous...

I sure would luv a 40X though

 

[jbpmidas]

I know it won't be in my range. My Kimber does well enough for me.

....... My Kimber does well enough for me.

I'll say.........................

Kimber 82-Gs seem to be the BEST DEAL going these days.

[jbpmidas]

We're going in the morning to pick one up for my son. He won't be able to shoot it for a few years, but CMP is going to run out!

 

[msredneck]

I don't think CMP is in any danger of being out of Kimber 82's any time soon...

Subgunfan what do you think a semi-reasonable price for a 40X would be..

I almost jumped on one the other day on GB for $700

 

[shoeshooter]

Hey, 'Neck, while you have your wallet out, did you see CMP is going to have a Rockola on auction?

$2000 on the CMP 40X wouldn't surprise me terribly.

 

[msredneck]

Based on what I've seen the last few years on CMP auctions...The Gun wallet won't do...

U'd have to go to the bank and get a loan...I don't need one that bad...

I'd give $600-$900 for one....Betcha $900 won't even sniff that one going up on Valentines Day

They say they have less than 1200 left. I'd like to buy one of the 40x barrelled actions for $350, but the drop in bolt I found was $199. They just get too expensive too quick. I wouldn't mind trying SubGunFan's one time though!

 

[msredneck]

Na You don't wanna try Subgunfan's...Then you'd HAVE to have one

I would not worry about 82G's running out...Folks shopping at CMP South Store hardly notice em...man I should have bought 2 when I was there...

but the 40X...well that one just rings my bell for some reason

 

[jbpmidas]

Is the 40x single shot or mag fed?

 

[captain-03]

All I can say is that IF you want a Kimber 82G, go ahead and get it pretty soon. As of a month ago, they had about 1200 left and that was both the $400 and $600 rifles. I know that when Shoeshooter and I went over on 1/22 there were not many in the racks. Of course this was on a Saturday and they had not be restocked since Wednesay.

I know two folks doing mail order for them as I type this ... I do not expect them to last until the end of the year ----

Neck, I have no idea what 22RF 40-Xs go for. As you know I am not in the market for one. You might want to look for Win. 52s also...........

jbp, you're welcome to shoot a match with my 40-X as I want to shoot one or two with my custom 10/22. We can discuss the "fee" later....

[SubGunFan]

The 22RF 40-X is single-shot.

[jbpmidas]

Fee? How about I throw a shot into the "9" ring just to give everyone a chance? :thumbup:

 

[captain-03]

Forgot this thread was about the 40X .. I looked at the barreled receivers at the South Store and actually thought about building one. Came home and did some research on parts along with some inquiries on a couple more boards --- parts are very hard to come by and if he can find them, they are way overpriced. Figured it would cost about $1400 - $1600 to put one together from a barreled receiver.

CMP auction prices are CRAZY!! I have seen $1000 guns go for $3000 just because they were a CMP gun!! CRAZY!! I am with Shoeshooter, bet it goes for $2000 or better!!

While I would like to have one marked US to add to the Military Trainer Rifle Collection, I am not going to pay what everyone wants for one. For shooting, my Kimber shoots better than I do. I have been offered a couple over the past month -- all in excess of $1000 and neither was US marked.

There is no bi-pod on my 40-X............. You going to have to learn to "bag it"...................

Or maybe we require you to use only a SLING.......

[jbpmidas]

I can do that! Well, maybe not the sling!

Kinda been watching for a deal on a 52...don't think it's happening anytime soon. Hard to justify $700 - $1000 for a 60-plus year old 22.
