A new-used muzzleloader perhaps? People at gun shows need to pay for their setup fee and usually you can haggle down the price on the item"s"

I never go to a gun show with the intent to find something to purchase. That means you have money and want to spend it. If you need something, then they are a good place to look. If you find a bargin then you can consider it. Otherwise I just avoid them if I need nothing. I find that while a lot of vendor want to make a sale, most are a little high on the prices, plus once you buy it... it is yours.

well told my wife I wanted to go to the gunshow, she gave me the look and said NO.

So back to plan A. getting up hunting in the morning then coming in take a nap, then going back out. that buck I froze on is still out there. Saw and missed one a few days ago. I wounder if that was him. I lost count at 7 points before he turned his head

Ever think about buying your wife a little kiss butt gift to make her happy? Then when she has her back turned the next day, Sneek off to the gun show and bring home something for the two of you to share.

There has to be some way to sucker.... ahem... To make her happy and get her to turn her back for half a day.

How about you having to leave to help a friend out who had just broken an arm?

cheaper than dirt i believe sells SKS clips. We put a 30 round clip on ours.

I know, I been debating on ordering. funny thing is, CTD is cheaper on the clip WITH SHIPPING. kicking myself on not getting the 45 black powder pistol that was there for $50 or $60.

Well now corey, thisisn't going to get you any shooting supplies, but I guarantee it will improve your life. Stick that $100 in an envelope and pretend it'salready spent. Then, on the first of each month, use part of it to buy a small bouquet of flowers (something like $6 at our local supermarkets) and leave them next to the kitchen sink late at nightso she will find them the nextmorning. Life is better when a woman smiles.
