I will add that of all the gun stuff that I have bought over the past month at Walmart, only the two scopes were actually in the Sporting Goods Dept.. The remainder was stashed somewhere in the back and without the benefit of a couple helpful associates I would not have gotten the deals that I did.

I picked up some 8x42 Leupold bx-2 Acadia binoculars today for $49. They were hid in a drawer and 2 associates searched high and low before finding them stashed away.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

I have to say that stores I have gone into to pick up deals had friendly people working there that found the items I that I was looking for. Infact when I asked the one clerk "do you have any other guns on clearance?" She responded with, "here is the list, we did an inventory yesterday, and I would really like to get them out of my hair." Apparently they did not get a chance to rotate them all into the cabinet on the sales floor and I made some of their job easier.....
I think a little politeness and being friendly goes a long way! I will also admit all of the stores I got great help in were in towns that were under 12,000 in population.....

The deals r over lol It's only $4.50 for the #4 shot. #6 and #71/2 are still $17.47. At least around here. I've bought about 60 boxes in the past week. I didn't know that Crook County IL which includes Sheetcago and surrounding slumburbs imposes a .05 PER round tax on ammo. .01 on rimfire. So a 500 round brick of .22 would have a save the children tax of $5. 200 round of centerfire and it'd be $10. Plus then they raipe you even further and charge you 10% sales tax on top of that. Still cheap for 75% off ammo. Didn't flinch at all when they told me about the tax when I told them I wanted all their Hi Brass #4-6 12 gauge. Their eyes exploded when it rang up at $3 dolla a box.

I had saved the brickseek inventory checker for the Vanguards, and thought I'd just check it again yesterday for the heck of it........when it shows a $249 243 in a Walmart about 15 miles away. I was driving down to pick up an order at Midsouth anyway, so I dropped in to look.
The manager of the sporting goods department said they'd been sold out for weeks, but he would look in the gun storage room anyway. He came back and said we don't have one, but when he checked inventory on the computer it showed one. Turns out it was sitting there in the gun rack all along.
It came home with me.

Some guy in the classifieds selling a couple of syn vanguards for like 450 apiece.... Jackwagon......
My buddy up in Maine says the syn 0t6 with the monarch 3 I sold him for 400 Shoots .75" 3 shots with 168gr Barnes ttsx factory ammo off the bench. Best 16 dollars profit I ever made knowing that. Cost him 65 dollars to cover shipping and ffl both sides and his back ground check.

Well, since I took the contract gig overseas, I am not at home to be spending money on guns I don't need according to the wife. Just got the heck of it, I looked up the skews for Wal-Marts near my home in Alaska, nada. I live just a couple of miles from Wal-Mart, so I usually go the gun section once a week when I'm home. I don't think I've ever seen them mark down anything other than a Ruger Hawkeye that I almost bought, and then found something else I wanted more.
