The Cabela's store 50 miles from here has 4 in stock... all they got is "sand" color, which is fine by me. I'm picking it up tomorrow morning. No shipping, no waiting.
BTW, Bob, I'm with Keith on this one in terms of boxing it up. When I fly, my pistol Pelican case is all beat-up & scratched-up like it's been drug down a gravel road behind my truck (it has, actually )and has "ACME SEPTIC SERVICE" stencilled on it, to discourage any larcenous baggage handlers...

Thanks Keith and Doc. I'll box it up and send it USPS later this week.
