That's a good example, fnb25, but with all due respect, living in Texas, I can't believe with all of the gun shows there in Texas you would have to trade in Seattle. And not some place closer. What about the Fort Worth show? If I go to the Louisville show, from here it is about 100+ miles. Tony Galazan, Dave Riffle, and scores of others are there. Even Oscar Gaddy was there. If you just had to due business in Seattle, from my caculations you would be about 1500 miles, give or take, from Seattle. You get in the car on Friday afternoon and you are in Seattle late Saturday night. Do your business Monday morning and are back home Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. So you miss a few days work. (Or, you do get a vacation, don't you?) That's a lot better than losing a gun worth thousands of dollars by shipping it. We have heard from dozens of others on here who paid thousands of dollars for a gun only to end up with a Harrington and Richardson single shot that was run over with a towmotor. Then they are screaming for a lawyer and they're going to sue somebody. In the meantime, many people sit on here thinking, "Bucket and a mop to aisle five!! Bucket and a mop to aisle five!!" It is only going to take that one time. And all the money someone makes or saves goes down the drain.....p.s. Las Vegas is only 1200 miles from Dallas/ Fort Worth.
