Default Anti gouging

A month ago a friend who works at a local Walmart asked if I needed 22 ammo. I was able to get three bulk packs of 333 rounds. One box was then sold to a friend at the price I paid for his son. It went with the rifle the child was to get for his birthday. A second box is to be raffled off at a local steel match for a charity. I kept one to shoot.

Nice gesture, seriously...

(OK, I'm kidding from here to the end, so get ready) ...but since, like a car, the minute you drive it off a lot it has devalued and is 'used' (ever sell a new gun back to your LGS and the dealer says he has to burn you because he has to sell it as used even though it wasn't fired?) the REAL anti-gouging price would be less than what you paid.

OK, kidding over. Still, nice gesture.

It's nice to see another lad with a conscious and good heart.

I was @ Wal Mart over the weekend just looking came across 22 LR 222 round packs. I don't shoot 22, but have a lot of friends that do and many of them have kids/grandkids that they're trying to introduce to shooting but are having a hard time thanks to the lack of 22 LR. I called a friend and asked if she'd like me to pick her up some and she said yes. I bought her 3 boxes (my limit) and she paid me back, $0.14 more than what I paid. She and her husband are taking their two grandsons to the range this weekend to shoot their new M&P-22. I'm glad I was able to put some 22 in the hands of honest people who will enjoy it and not hustlers (many of which probably have no interest in shooting).
