At 9:45 this morning, I called Norm (local friend and co-conspirator) and made plans to go to the Gander Outdoors/Runnings/Bass Pro Shop, in an endeavor to acquire a Henry Arms 22LR plump action rifle for the GNAP’s collection. At 10:30 am, I picked Norm up and the trek began.
First we ventured to the Gander Outdoors (former Gander Mt), they had multiple lever action Henrys, but no pump actions, so the trip of 10 or so miles to the local Runnings store, began.
At Runnings, they had 2 of the Henry pump actions, a 22 magnum and a 22LR, a quick look see and a price that was about $50 cheaper than Grander Outdoors, it was a quick decision, I said box it up. I filled out the required paperwork and DAMN!!, the GNAP slide under the radar and was approved.
While I was there, I picked up a box of 1600, of the Federal 22LR ammo, as we are in NYS, and Tsar Andy, says no out of state ammo deliveries, I did not get the killer deal, like in the other thread, but I felt that $.05 per shot was not excessive.
So this brings the GNAP’s 22LR collection to 4, a Rutgers bolt action, a Ruger 10/22, a Remington 510 Targetmaster (single shot) and the new Henry pump action.
