Not at all, but it is because a privately-owned store nearby has a limited selection of milsurp rifles, but also comical price tags. None of the others have more than about two classic rifles. To me a WASR is not a milsurp, whether Century (never) or not...
It's too bad that both "The Ammo Depot", about 30 min. n.e. of Rockwall/Dallas by I-35, and "Allen's Gun Shop", just south of Ft. Campbell in Clarkesville TN, are a fair ways from the Memphis area. They both have a pretty good selection during the rare trips passing by.
"Allen's" had an exc. Spanish FR8
and "The Ammo Depot" (two years ago) had an excellent Enfield #4/Mk 2 (yes, two) listed for about $450!
They are the Only gun shops I ever look forward to, despite rare chances to visit them, and that's why even our small, dull gun shows are the only local option.
levsmith: Nobody staffed the counter at Dicks with three of us there, so I reached over it and grabbed my own box of Win. .22. What a joke.
At ChinaMart, I picked up the p.a. transmitter after a 10 min. wait and paged the store for help in the "gun dept": "Two customers need help in guns & ammo".
