[QUOTE="Idaho_Elk_Huntr, post: 99708, member: 5298"] When I lived in Virginia I would go to the Show Place in Mechanicsville every gun show and would find a deal on something. Many gun dealers with new guns. I would show up on Sunday a few hours before it was over. I would always have a list of what I was interested in. It was good when 2 or 3 people had the same thing. Someone would always beat the others price. Here in northern Idaho its a lot different. No gun dealers with new guns. Most everything has dirty barrels. have asked many if I could clean the gun to see what the bore looked like [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Many get insulted. Only deal I have found here in the last few years was a Ruger 338 mag with tank safety for $275. metal was 100% but stock looked like it had gone through a chipper. Most times now I stay at home. Last time I went I was looking for Encore barrels. $260 was the cheapest and they were all used and many were pitted. Cheapest complete Encore was $625 with pitted barrel. Just a waist of time.
