Got my PAL, and my 1st rifle!

[radarbeam]

Hey folks,

After month of drooling over other people's firearms I finally got my PAL and picked up this new sweet rifle last week. A Nice CZ 452 Varmint with a Falcon Merlin on it. Oh she's a joy to shoot!

Here's some pics.

Congradulations, and great choice.

Great choice for a first rifle!

FYI: The trigger can be improved with an Eric Brooks trigger kit.

The front scope cap is brilliant.

Congratulations on your first gun - a fine one at that

I am sure you will be most pleased with your CZ (as every other CZ owner is out there )

 

[radarbeam]

Thanks for the comments guys.
I'll order a brook kit next week.
The scope smiley is actually from user nine right here on our forum. He had a pic of his rifle with it and posted the template for anyone to use

Congrats on both your PAL and the 'new arrival'!

From what range were the targets shot? It looks like '25 yards' might be written under the ammo in the pic, but I'm not sure...

 

[radarbeam]

Yep sir, 25 yards.

Good choice! I got a 453 Varmint a few weeks ago, and have been nothing but happy with it, too.

Hey, that front cap looks mighty familiar!

 

[ebruder]

Nice rifle... Can't wait to see some of your scores in the online matches! That rifle/scope will do very well for you and the matches are a great way to practice.

Your First Gun Congrats

You have made a good decision and it's a classy first gun. Be careful it can develop into a pattern. If you answer yes to the following three questions look out.

1. Do you smoke?
2. Do you drink regularly?
3. Do you gamble?

If you answer yes to all three, God Help You.

I don't really like bolt actions but that's a pretty rifle. I like the grain of the stock too. Nice choice.

 

[H Wally]

Wow - great first rifle! Welcome to a very addictive hobby.

 

[604shooter]

I don't really like bolt actions

Shame on you!

Not Married ...yet!
Aye caramba, with only 4 trips to the range I've already put close to 600 rounds down-range. I think I'll have to re-mortgage the house once I get into centrefires!

Nice rifle, and welcome to the club!

It's addicting, trust me. I got my PAL in April of 2006, and I already have 9 firearms.

Now you need a semi-auto .22

Now you need a semi-auto .22

Yep that's next on the list. I was thinking a 10/22 with a Krinker Plinker kit maybe.
