Default Awesome buy at Wal Mart

I just bough a Simmons Aetec 2.8-10x44 for $50. It was regular $159, Since it was the display model and they had no box for it, I got it dirt cheap. Do you think this is a good deal?

That' s a fantastic deal! That is way under dealer cost.. Do you know if they are doing this everywhere? I picked up two walkers game ears the other day on clearance at walmart for $55 each... All the walmarts were doing this..

I called my local walmarts and they are all gone. Oh well.... Enjoy, you got a great deal! I was pretty happy to get the walkers game ears at 1/3 the cabelas price. When Walmart wants it to go, it goes...

I own three Simmons 44mags in 2-7 X 44... never had any problems with any of them. They hold up very well, hold zero and are nice and bright.

Hope you have good luck with the atec,just got a new one back last month,it was the 3rd time I have sent it back,put it on an encore 45 cal and went to the range today,after shooting for groups I decided to zero it in with the bullet that shot the best group then found out it wouldn' t track,if I turned it to go left it wouldn' t move or move the opposite direction.going to try it on a center fire and see if it is the same if so I think I will just throw it in the trash can.

That' s awful, I would demand that Simmons send you a different kind of scope ASAP.
