Well i figured what the heck i will take about $600.00 and find me a good 3/4" tube Target scope like a Unertl or Lyman for the Win. 52 and head to the Gunshow. $10.00 to get in ok,very little elbow room and not 1 target scope like i was looking for,not even a rifle with one mounted. (saw 2 rifles with scopes mounted last week at a small town gunshow) Was also looking for a rubber butt plate to replace the one on same rifle but only had one table with much to choose from and he only had about 12 and none were right.But if you wanted black guns,knives or ammo there was a lot of it. Guess i will have to watch the auction but i really like to get my hands on somethings before i buy them. [V]

    I went, bought some boxes to put my reloads in. I may go back tomorrow and see what I can trade for a XDM 45 in 3.8. I've got a regular XD and I love it! Could use a little smaller one. My wardrobe on my frame never made me feel comfortable carrying the full size...
    To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go out into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness, how cheap, how cowardly, how pathetic. Ted Nugent.

    I went Saturday and did get to see Kimberkid. This show reminded me of Tulsa a little. Ten dollar admission, stand in line to buy ticket, shoulder to shoulder crowds, lots of baby strollers, jewelry and junk the only difference there were a lot less used guns and a lot of full price new ones. Oh well, I still like gunshows. I can always find someone to swap tales with.[:D]

    P.S. Kimberkid was in a suit and playing hooky from work.

    He Dog, I hope to see you in the spring at Tulsa.
