gun show/range/scope mess

Fri May 11 17:47:01 EDT 2001

I believe last Wednesday I called to get some estimate of when my Remington 700P might arrive - or at least confirmation that it would. I hadn't ordered a scope for it because there was some doubt that I'd actually be able to get the rifle due to availability related to the "P" in the model number. The guy told me he'd have to call the distributor, and would give me a call back either that day or the next. I got a voicemail one day late (Friday, I believe)-- instead of giving me a time frame, they told me my rifle showed up. !@#$!#... no scope. Put the phone down, picked it back up, and ordered a Leupold scope for it. I told them.. I was rather anxious to get it. They told me it would get here "early next week". Well, it's Friday. I called them yet again. Bastards did have my scope, but hadn't bothered to call me yet. They'll be closed before I get out of work, so.. hopefully I can pick it up after I get back from the gun show tomorrow.

I haven't been to a gun show in a long time - since before I actually got into guns. So I really want to go to this one - closest one there will be for a while. Tried going to the one last weekend, but didn't manage to get myself out of bed early enough. So it should be interesting to see if I succeed this time.

Gah... okay, I'll go to the range tomorrow. I really need to sight this rifle in... more than I need to get to this gun show.
