Smokewagon Forty-Five Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 2018 was a bad year for me to try to get into SASS/CAS! One set back after another! I have been a SASS member for about two and a half years now. I joined a local club Rio Salado Cowboys but only made it to two practice shoots over a year ago. I started to get the things needed but got held up with the last two things, the Smokewagons!! I placed my order with Buds Guns today!! I am looking forward to my first shoot!

Warden Callaway Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Good luck on your Smokewagons from Buds. Look them over very carefully before doing the FFL transfer. Read and understand their return policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been a SASS member for about two and a half years now. Good choice on the guns. I joined in '92, got married the same month, a daughter came along a year later, then a divorce straight from hell in 2000 - I didn't actually shoot a match til eight years after I joined. During that time, I never renewed my membership, and my number was assigned to someone else in '98, so I had to join again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgavin Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 The good news: you are in AZ and not in CA. I have to wait 30 days between each of my 5 revolvers, and 10 days each between two rifles and a coach shotgun. My last revolver will get delivered by the FFL around October 1. Bud's is not the lowest price, nor the fastest ship, but they are very reliable. A typical purchase from Bud's is 14 days from order to delivery. They hold ACH (bank cash transfers) for 7 full days before processing the order. Shipping is another 7 days for long guns, or 2-day air for hand guns. I have made multiple buys from Tombstone Tactical in AZ. They have a sub-office in Chino Valley for those that live up in the Prescott area. I'm happy it is working for you. My bride is still keeping score, and I am picking up brass until we are fully equipped and have some practice under our belts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk James Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Look forward to seeing you on the range. Don't get to shoot Rio, 4 hour drive, but shoot other shoots in AZ. A lot to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex Wilson Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 SW45 glad to see you get started. I used to live in Chandler, moved up north to Chino Valley when I retired. Moved in with my partner in life Barb, a few months ago , now living in Prescott Valley. I shoot my first match on September 8th with the Whiskey Row Gunslingers out of Prescott. Hope to shoot with you one of these days, much cooler up here in the high desert. I'm getting my guns from Tombstone Tactical in Chino Valley.
