SS Kresge is KMart. Troy is where their HQ was. Back in the 70s and 80s, there were actually Kresge stores in addition to Kmart. They were smaller stores branded just like Kmart.
When I was a kid, I looked forward to the Sunday comics in the newspaper. Now, your channel has taken place of that. Such a diverse content. Very informative. So glad you can get this assortment in.. I have the Ruger 1911, very well made pistol and very accurate!
I have two Ruger SR1911's in stainless steel, both .45ACP. I love them. My next one will be in 10mm. For me, the 1911 is the easiest pistol I own for accurate shooting. I can point shoot it better than any other gun I own. It just feels natural in my hand.
Great show as always. I would love if other regions of our Country had similar demonstrated. You have a winning platform that I enjoy and learn so much. Thanks
The slot at the front of the Mossberg 22 is for a removable palm rest. Designed for 3 position bullseye shooting. Intent was to provide an affordable rifle for new bullseye shooters to keep interest in the sport growing. They were not an Anschutz, but they were very excellent for what they cost.
Good morning Chris. It's Ted here. Definitely enjoy the videos my friend. I'm one of those gun crazy people that love looking at old and interesting and unique guns. Not too crazy. Hahaha
Another excellent video. I always learn something historically. Nice selection of long guns this week. And to see fairly low price points even in the current market is refreshing. Keep the videos coming!
Stoeger shotguns (owned by Beretta) are Turkish made for the most part. Boito shotguns are Brazilian so there is no commonality other than design which is loosely based on the old Parker Bros guns from the early 1900's. S.S. Kresge was the parent company of Kmart. I had one of these in a 16 gauge back in the mid 70's and it always got the job done.
Not exactly their own line of guns. They imported the Boito under it's own name. The Marlin 30TK, basically a 336 with short barrel and straight grip stock, but still labeled Marlin, was sold exclusively through KMart.
Hey Chris, I took a used stevens 200 308 and put a custom 24" bull barrel,timney trigger, and dropped in a Mcmillian stock. For $1000 all in she's a sub m.o.a. shooter💥💥💥💥
Chris another excellent Sunday viewing, think it's very interesting what's going on over in US right now. I wonder if we would be in same boat here in UK if our gun laws were different.
I have a Mossberg 44 US (B) . Without question the most accurate rifle I've ever shot. One hole 100 yd. groups every time. Prize rifle! ( They have 7rd. Mags)
Let us know if there is still panic buying tomorrow and Tuesday. I love the short history lessons as well as the pricing. We picked up an old Stevens 20GA at the gun show for my son, which he refinished himself and used for dove season this year.
i liked the Fn's , but the huge gap between the bottom of the sights and the slide drove me nuts. for a company like FN, they could do better engineering
@@paulmoss7940 I get why it is around but seriously 45-70 will kill a deer just as well. With many more options for factory ammo. Ohio is one of they markets they aim this at and the gun shop guys I talk to say they sell way more 45-70 lever guns than 350 Legend anything.
@@Rubeless it was designed for the 3 or so states that don't allow bottle neck cartridges for hunting. The problem is there are a ton of other options thst are well established. Besides a boring 12ga slug, 357 mag, 44 mag, and 45-70 exist with a lot of loadings to chose from.
Those Springfield XD's 🤢🤮💩 They have one of the worst triggers on the market in their competitive range. Well made, reliable pistol, but that trigger is inexcusable .
Did you mean "Rube Goldberg" talking about the PHP? Good information, and as always your price estimates are eminently fair considering the market. S.S. Kresage was basically local stores back in the 1960s and 1970s that were bought up by Sears.
An extra hour of sleep and NOW this?!?! What a great start of this Sunday.
On the Bioto , S.S. Kresge was a chain of dept stores. I believe they eventually evolved into what was K-Mart.

Perfect timing. Had a hurry up and wait situation. That killed some of the wait.
Love this channel it amazes me how many firearms you take in.

Chris: 10mm is basically a stretched .40S&W
10mm fans: fite me, bro.
Have u ever saw a 10 mm wrench? Its damn small. Lets get real
@@charlesmciver897 i still have my 1076 and love it.
Great show as always.
I would love if other regions of our Country had similar demonstrated. You have a winning platform that I enjoy and learn so much.
Thanks
The ruger you showed had the titanium feed ramp for hollow point ammunition. I've owned one for awhile, very nice.

THANK YOU Chris for doing this. Look forward to them.
The 512’s are really cool, the take down for cleaning with the tactical is kinda a pain but awesome shooters!!!! The ones in .22mag are even better
SS Kresge was later renamed K Mart, didn’t know they had their own line of guns
Be nice to see harbor freight sell guns, glock would be happy

I like that this is back to Sundays!

great niche, keep them coming, appreciate you providing market pricing, nice to know what values are for our collections
obtw is it weird that I have all of these guns except the CZ , but now I must have one!
Time for you to make a video. I don’t collect, but appreciate seeing others collections.
Chris another excellent Sunday viewing, think it's very interesting what's going on over in US right now. I wonder if we would be in same boat here in UK if our gun laws were different.
Hey Chris ! That’s a good looking Ruger SR 1911..Thanks for the vid, They make a great addition to Sunday!! ☺️
Love the fact that you have a solid vocabulary....
Would love to have all of them.
What a line up!
NIce Mossberg 22. There's a member at our club that shoots one of these in our CMP matches. He generally wins every time he shows up!
I always look forward to your posts Chris 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
SS kresge was the long time owner of K-mart, and originally ran as a similar outfit to Woolworth's.
I have a Mossberg 44 US (B) . Without question the most accurate rifle I've ever shot. One hole 100 yd. groups every time. Prize rifle!

Great start to the Sunday AM!
Always interesting and informative. Thanks so much!
Another great video, thanks so much!
Love the videos, and I want that mossberg
Would love a Ruger SR1911 CMD but the prices are too high right now. Will wait for prices to return to normal before I get one.
Thank you for the info...best to you!
Curious if you can transfer to another ftl?
Another great video, thanks.
Happy Voting To Everyone!
Good morning Chris, gonna be a good day with your video!
I Dig That 10mm XDM ammo is still available too
Kresge was the old name before the new old name back in Michigan, back in the day before they got global and then almost died.... Kmart!
I really like that Ruger Ranch in 350 Legend
Really like this videos 👍👍👍👍
I have the shotgun, except mine says Made For KMart. It is pretty basic, but it fits and hits like it was custom built for me.
Good stuff
Ok the 10mm came before the 40 S&W its not a streched out case.
Boito was made for sears or kmart one or the other
I llike my Mossberg 44US, it’s a true tack-driver!
Post a pick using a finishing nail or grab some bench!
He has been waiting to say “tack driver”.
Hello. Thanks for another review. Wish more on your walls. Just wanted to comment instead of lurking.
i liked the Fn's , but the huge gap between the bottom of the sights and the slide drove me nuts. for a company like FN, they could do better engineering
Just use a file, not hard
SS Kresge is the predecessor to K-Mart.
Oh yah. Been waiting...
Wasn't 350 Legend the answer to a question no one was asking? Especially when 45-70, 450 Bushmaster, and 458 SOCOM exist.
Another caliber ploy to try to sell more guns. Doncha love how they have the gall to name an unproven new cartridge "legend". smh

Isn’t every caliber just about an answer to a question nobody asked? Gun geeks want to be different.

Was kresge not affiliated with kmart In some way?
I had a 144lsb as a kid in the 70s shot youth competition think my dad paid $180.00
mossburg is missing the frt sliding hand stop ... bi -pod ? your nuts you know shit .. rare model came with a tee bolt handle
Marlin Model 60 is tube-fed, not mag-fed.
From the opening view behind you, it looks like your new gun stock hasn't improved much.
Those Springfield XD's 🤢🤮💩 They have one of the worst triggers on the market in their competitive range. Well made, reliable pistol, but that trigger is inexcusable .
2.0 or 1.0. Apparently 2.0 has better trigger and a little less reliability.
Makes hickcock & iv88 look slow
Hickock is THE MAN

Hehe yes, that is what I meant. Thanks for watching!
@@MarksmanTV Still am...The CZ is on..lol
Anyone who recommends an XD of any kind isn't someone I would buy guns from...I mean why don't you recommend the kel-tek pmr-30 while you're at it.
Have to quit posting these on Sunday morning. The preacher gets mad when I'm listening to it during his sermon
Not a bad idea, a gun church, yes
"Rube Goldberg".
Speaking of the Springfield XD mod 2, who decided to make "grip zone" part of the grip. I hate that gun just because of that.
