Sound crazy ? Right ? But it's true.
I have been shopping for a 10/22 for some time... I want one with walnut stock and a 20" barrel. but I couldn't find one. So I bought a wood stock with a 22" barrel off of Gun Broker out of Florida and had it sent to my FFL
Gun,tax, shipping. $406.00
FFL trans fee. $40.00
Tally scope rings. $50.00

Just nuts for a squirrel gun.
