There is another member trying to show me a rifle and I can't find the classifieds. Thanks
YOU HAVE TO BE A PAID MEMBER TO VIEW THE CASSIFIEDS ON THIS FORUM .. i DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DO THAT HERE .....BUT ITS LIKE NO OTHER HERE...
Thanks!!
It's worth it! $12 a year has saved me $100s maybe $1000s. I'm serious. Not through direct purchases necessarily, but by saving me from having to buy new, pay gunsmiths, etc.
Go to Profile --> Paid subscriptions
There are not enough members and to many rules on this savage forum to PAY just to see or do anything.... I am so sad..:(........ just my 2$ Is there another one out there? please help need some savage 110 parts... Im really disappoited.... I just wasted my morning trying to see the classified forum and got NOTHING! have a nice day.
Your looking at it all wrong, you can count on one hand and then subtract a couple of fingers, for they amount of members that have gotten a raw deal or screwed, out of there hard earned money, try that on another gun forum scammers won't pay either, if you are going to be doing any builds in the future, you are going to be missing out on some great opportunity's, and even the regular stuff brass dies ect no price gouging here, not for nothing the less members, the less competition for the good deals.
Tanks Dean
thanks for the response. i am just cheap and did look at it another way. i do agree with your keeping the scammers away. I will try this and join your forum. very nicely said. I am happy again. :) have a nice day
You won't have to spend a couple hundred, on a custom barrel to recoup that $12.00, I did it on my very first purchase, a new set of dies $20.00 shipped, I was almost suspicious in the beginning the deals were so good, there not all like that but once in a while, a killer deal comes around, and even the regular stuff is better than you can do else where.
Tanks Dean
i gotta go, but real quick, how many members are there? and how old is this forum? any where i could look later today. please fill me in...thank you.
The stats say 15,000 total active 3000 and 8 years give or take.
Dean
this is one of the best forums around.I have learned a lot and found some great deals on here.I also learned how rusty I am at typing,I can't type as fast as I think.Haha

In my view (and obviously NOT the view of this forum or it's ownership), I'm very happy that some folks will look at the membership fee (which is annual) and decide to NOT pay it. I like the fact that the membership seperates the serious from the rest. Its nice to know that the folks you are dealing with are Savage enthusiasts and not just some schmoe who might be misrepresenting or otherwise "scaming" the real Savage community here.
So for all of you who would complain about the membership... please go somewhere else to complain and make your "home". I am not going to cry over your loss....
PS - that wasn't meant to be interprited to be mean-spirited. You should take it as a well-meaning and serious outlook on why membership here is more than just a fee.
The reality is that this forum is known to have the best selection of parts available. That has drawn the resellers as much as the builders and users. I see a lot of stuff purchased here and sold elswhere. If you need parts, posting a WTB XXXxxx on any gun classifieds section is the way to go.
thank you members!....from the responses, this savage forum sounds very informative. keep the brotherhood going! I would like to hear more reasons and benefits to join. all my rifles are savage. I may have found the place to share my interests.
Welcome to the forum, however, I wonder if this forum is really for you.
You joined, resurrected a thread from 2009, and your first post is one saying how bad the forum is. You have not made a great first impression.
I don't think that anyone is going to spend much time trying to convince you to join, although several of our more respected members have responded to your posts very politely and sincerely.
My suggestion is that you click on the "membership info" at the top of the page for additional information on what joining gets you. Read all the various FAQs.
I also suggest you simply hang out, read the posts and lurk in the forums that interest you and if you feel like it, ask some questions about your rifles and see what kind of responses and answers you get.
Then, if you wish, join for a year for less than the cost of a few coffees at Starbuck's. If it is not worth it in your opinion, don't renew.
Your call.
I've personally lurked on this forum on and off for a few years and recently made a screen name and paid my due's as I'm now ready to start putting the knowledge i've learned on the board into use. There are alot of "tire kickers" out there who want to do alot of things but never do. I myself included. only difference is I keep it to myself and don't ask around untill I know i'm ready to pull the trigger. I may ask questions to gain insight and narrow down choices(theorize basically). to me this forum is more for "tuners" those who enjoy the sport and making something their own, personalize it, ect... if thats not you, i'd say go troll around one of the other forums and kick tires.
:pop2:
maybe this forum is for me and maybe its not. thats for me to decide. talking and kicking tires is what a forum is anyway. why is it wrong to kick tires on a forum?? Theres also nothing wrong to resurrect a thread that been dead for 8 years either. it was there on the first page of threads anyway, and looked interesting to me. From when was this posted? 2009???? wow, There are probably others that liked the idea that i started a thread again.
Jimmy, You past the test. Your in. Don't make me regret this. Now send in your money so we can buy stuff from you and sell stuff to you.
We do need to get one thing established. If you're going to resurect threads, get ready for some mud slinging.
there is no more informative forum than this one.the knowledge is here and the members are willing to share everything they know.it is the best dollar a month you can spend to save a lot of money and learn more about savage rifles and accuracy than you can imagine.
Thats the best reply from a NORMAL savage shooters forum member i heard all Day. I'm not a troublemaker. I was just trying to get an answer. Lets do it. thank you so much from your friend JIM.
FWIW....I've probably saved myself at least $500 ( just in mistakes from lack of knowledge) + made some friends with similar interests. Can't really put a price on the latter. Well worth the price of a membership.
...if you don't get it by now why not just move on somewhere else? It really doesn't seem (to me anyway) that you are a serious Savage enthusiast (otherwise this thread wouldn't have even existed).Quote:

I quoted your very first post here so you could see how bad it looks to members that have been here for years and love what this board represents.Quote:

Less than 2 cents, sorry.(this thread will be closed soon!)
I love this place, I have learned a lot. I do read more then I post though.
This tread should be a must read for new members.
Dean
And the number one top ten reason for being a paid member of the Savage Shooters .com forum is....We don't have any bashers on this forum.Quote:

stangfish, you are cracking me up:biggrin-new: with the popcorn, Are you enjoying this or what. I can't believe it either.
I am the resident antagonist. Don't mind me.
Almost everyone here knows me and how I am. Just look out for that guy "scope eye". He is freaking scary!!!!!
pay the money, i need some stuff
I have an alert that goes off when my name is mentioned on this forum.
someone rang.
Dean
BS. You are snowed in and the only thing you can do is surf you favorite site!
Keeki.....Like we need more "stuff"
Your right things have dried up a little in the classifieds.
Dean
Brian did you want that stock?
Warning for all here.........Keep this civil guys.
Give new members the benefit of the doubt until proven guilty. If he's guilty, it'll show up, if not, forgive and let it go.
I've made the mistake of digging up old posts on other forums because it was the closest thing to the subject matter I was looking for........needless to say, I DON'T go to that forum anymore.
If you can't find the answer to your particular situation here, it doesn't really exist.
This is THE Savage Info forum.
I've dealt with many, many guys here & never had any trouble. It's a requirement if you own a Savage firearm AND if your a member here, its a non-negotiable requirement to be up front & honest here.
If you're not, we send "Fingers" Frederico & Nicki "The Nose" over to straighten things out....
That's should be reason #1 a place to share your interest,your knowledge and hopefully learn something you hadn't thought of on your own its a great site I know I learn new tricks all the time from reloading to building your own. With you having only savage rifles ( I am jealous) I would think for 12.00 it's a cheap price to pay to have so many like minded people helping each other.
3.28 cents a day. Been a bargain for me.
I've gained a good deal of knowledge on my new hobby of switch barrel Savage builds, stocks, bedding, and triggers.
Found a great custom contoured Rock Creek barrel through Russell D. with very little wait time.
Experienced shooters willing to share what they have learned.
