[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2488869, member: 9374"] Well, I just checked BB and found that Bartlesville has some for the first time in over a week. It's just a few blocks away so I hopped in the car and headed down. Stood in line around 10 minutes while the woman working the sporting goods desk complained about how it must be good fishing weather, while she made 2 fishing licenses (got the impression she was irritated at having a run on licenses?). Then when it got to be my turn I asked about .22 ammo and she gestured to the shelf and said, "We don't have any." I asked when they put out new stock coming off the truck and she seemed irritated and said, "I don't know, but you're welcome to wait in line, there's already one gentleman waiting. It could be anywhere from 6 till 10." Being as it was 10 minutes till 6, I didn't deem it worth the effort to wait. The man she gestured to (the one "in line"?) was prolly.... early/mid-50s? Slight build, salt & pepper, maybe 5'3"-5'5"? He kinda had his head down, browsing the aisles.... maybe he didn't want to be noticed??? Dunno, I just glanced and left. Wasn't too worried. I was planning on one of two scenarios - offering for sale to local members at essentially retail plus tax, or keep two, donate one. I hadn't decided yet, but it's moot, I won't be standing in line for hours. [/QUOTE]
