hi guys just joined. curious what would be considered a reasonable 2nd price for 1 of these CMCs. Chasing a 223 on a tight budget and have seen 1 advertised but due to not knowing much about the CMC brand google lead me to this forum where there seems to be a wealth of knowledge. appreciate any help thanks.

Made by Howa so whatever a Howa sells for 2nd hand (mind you I reckon they were better finished back then) got one myself and its a beautiful little rifle and very bloody accurate (I won't be selling it ever!)

Howas are nice guns, admittedly the ones I've seen have had Smith&Wesson or Weatherby stamped on them as well, but there is no complaint about the quality. I do believe that Howas are now imported into the USA under their own flag as well.

Yeah they used to make a lot of firearms for quite a few manufacturers (all the same just with the companies name stamped on the receivers) they used to even make parts for Sakos at one stage and the Howa Action was based on one of theirs (my L461AI Sako and my Howa's look very similar in the action and floor plate design)







Howa even made an exact copy of a Sako L61R which resulted in a lawsuit and them parting ways!

He's really grabbed that market.

Must be making a damn good living tinkering with triggers.

Glen does a fantastic job on triggers and an excellent price and very quick turnaround too. He's done my Sako and all my Howas and will get all my trigger work in the future.
