Lost track, might have already posted. Bought a Stoeger M2000 from a buddy. Plan was to let the girlfriend shoot it but her arms are way too short. Not is it my backup/loaner gun.

Damn nice setup you got there but screw cutting all that grass!

It's one of the old all metal ones. Easily a $45-50 reel.

I was thinking it was a reel. Probably built better than what you can get now.

Definitely. I have a good 20-25 of them as spares in a box but I can't pass up a cheap one in need of rescue.

My brother picked up a newer model C with the rounded sides with box and papers for 25 at a different pawn shop. Was a good day.

Most definitely and for the price they better. I know several guys who use them and they use and abuse them and they keep on going.

They are the best in their class. I've mower with one that has over 1600 hours on it and it still mows beautifully. Mine is a 2011 model with less than 100 hours.
