Hey 12 Pointer just curious as to how much you had to give for the gun? The reason I ask is because I have a two year old Omega but would like to get the new one with the thumbhole stock. I've been looking at them for some time now and have seen them in Cabelas and other outdoor stores for around $600. Well to get to the point I was in my local Wal-Mart the other day and saw they had one.(and one is all they had) Well they had it priced for $492.00 and thats a heck of a price difference. Do you or anyone else have any opions on buying guns from Wal-Mart. I've bought a couple of .22's from there for coon hunting and stuff but have heard stories that the guns they recieve are not the quality of guns you would get anywhere else. Sounds strange just curious. Thanks
