Our local gun shop owners tell me that virtually nothing is selling except plastic and ultra long range tactical stuff. Most won't even take a pump shotgun on consignment.

I was in one of the larger ones a week ago and there were two 1000 yard bench rest rifles there. I mentioned the .300 Holland & Holland and the guy behind the counter (in his early 30s) had never heard of it. Nor had he heard of the WImbleton matches from the era between the world wars. I really have become a dinosaur.
