Walked into our LGS - a very small but professional shop in a very small rural town. I wasn't even there to look at guns, as my safe has been very content of late.
BUT
I noticed a fella handling a rifle on the used rack, and immediately recognized it as a Tikka T3 (like kryptonite to me!). It was a .308 wearing a handsome 3-9x40 Redfield Revolution scope and had been threaded for a suppressor.
The shop owner, knowing I have a weakness for Tikkas, said "don't you at least want to know how much?" I said sure, lay it on me. The answer had me scrambling for my wallet. $350!
Are you kidding? I never score deals like that. The owner explained they had just taken it in on trade and got it for next to nothing, so they passed the savings on to me. Wow. The scope alone is worth $179. Good grief!
Now to see how she shoots. (but again, it's a Tikka so that's not even a real question...)
Is it Halloween or is it Christmas? LOL
