That is at the Cabela's just 20 miles south of my house.  Looks like I am going for a drive tonight.

It was sold by the time I arrived.  Apparently it sold sometime yesterday and they just hadn't gotten all the online adds updated.

Actually, it is on lay-away.  Which I have mixed feelings about.  I know lots of guys here and on other forums leverage this.  But when I am the guy standing there with full price in hand, it is hard not to find it frustrating.

My feelings aren't mixed.......if it's advertised for sale and you've taken your time to show up at the place of business money in hand, they should sell it to you. It's just poor business. Layaway is fine for a new firearm that can be reordered.

I tried to buy a 1006 awhile back from a local gun store that they had on Gunbroker. It had no bids at the time and only a day left on the auction........they said ' x number of people have it on their watch lists on GB' and wouldn't sell it. Too bad, I'd have paid them more than they received on the auction plus it soured me from doing anymore business with them. Bought three pistols from them over the last year so I see it as their loss.

You shouldn't be surprised as they aren't that easy to find. Especially, new old stock. The pistol has been out of production for almost 20 years.

Life in the fast lane.  It's commonly not fair, and there's more than enough greed, back stabbers,... to go around.
