I started my hunt for a TRG a few months ago. It may seem like a straight forward process, but the 300wm in no longer imported. I called every stocking dealer in the US with no luck.
Euro Optics told me it would be atleast two years before Beretta imports them again. I had a fellow contact me on another forum. He had one NIB he wanted 4200$. I couldnt swing that.
I started to look at putting a 5R 700 in a AICS. I had a few Remmys that shot extremely well with no work.
Losing hope I made one more google search a few weeks ago. The first thing that popped up was a Craigslist ad. I though scam (right).
I followed up with numerous emails. It wasnt a scam but the guy didnt want to ship out of NY. I call every shop in his area. I made all of the arrangement. It took another week for me to sell my LMT MWS. Turn those funds around and overnight them.
So, the fellow in NY dropped it off at the FFL. THEN, the storm hits you know SANDY!!! The shop had a busy number for days and the tracking number had no status.
Finally 10 days later the gun showed up at my FFL. He was already gone out west on a hunting trip. LOL
So almost four weeks after initial contact its home and ready to go to the range.
The gun was NIB. It came with a TAB sling, Brake, NEAR base, and a couple rails. I added the NF 5.5-22x56 and Badger Med rings.
