RE: PA. Gun Laws
My wife got me an Omega for Christmas. We were in Walmart when I saw it on sale for $169. I told my wife, " I know what you can get me for Christmas" She bought it right over the counter, No paper work, No drivers license check, nothing. Just paid the money. They did carry it to the exit door and handed it to us outside, though.
I doubt you will find a deal on a muzzleloader now. All the Walmarts are sold out of all muzzleloader stuff in my area. SW PA. You may get lucky, though.
