Triumph finds new home
#1
I just pick up a T/C Triumph from a guy who need cash by Friday am to pay some bills.
Camo on stainless.......I have heard alot of good write ups on this gun so with a little twisting of my arm shes mine. Some people say I have more money then sense but I paid 300 for the gun. He wanted 550 with Nikon scope so I made offer just for the gun and got a call around 6pm.....SOLD.
When I get it home its still loaded from hunting season. He bought it in late September had one range outing and shot it twice at deer both times finding its mark. Now for the tough question which gun to sell?
Blackdiamond XR OR
Remington Genesis????
Don't have to sell anything but wife was not happy about this purchase.
To make her happy sell one and she thinks she wins a small battle and it frees me up for my scope purchase.

The fact that they do not make the Triumph in stainless is one of the main reasons I have an Endeavor. Which is not to say anything against the Triumph if I ever get the Endeavor to shoot like the Triumph I will be very happy. Lee

I know what you mean my wife gets ticked when I bring a new one home to. I bought a new bow this summer, she wasnt very happy either.

The idea is to have so many guns & bows the wife wouldn't know the difference.

When you are selling one make sure she sees that one leave the house. When she asks where you are going with that just tell her you're selling it. Of course, never let her see one come in! Didn't you know that rule?

Thats exactly right there. My wife has no clue whats in my gun safe. Just like I have no idea whats in her jewlery box.

The easy answer - Blame it on Cayugad or Grouse as i do - just trying to keep up and stay modern because the new guns are safer!
The lie! - my wife doesn't have a concern......

Sure blame it all on me...I had to buy it to keep up with Cayugad's collecton.(truth is Sabotloader hasmore rifles then I do)
That's why I never post a good picture of myself. I'd end up on every dart board or push pin message board with them fancy red push tacks where my eyes should be. Probably have magic marker horns too!!
Congratulations of the new rifle. Be sure to post a pick and some range results. I see there is a nice Omega on another board for a good price. So I am not looking over there anymore. I think I will go shoot!
