Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow" data-source="post: 736483" data-attributes="member: 7123">Sorry, but that's quite possibly the silliest thing I've ever read.  Sentence one implicitly puts the blame upon on me and others like me for the demise of retail stores vis a vis internet sales, instead of putting the blame on the retailers where it lies, for not stocking what we want.Then in the next sentence, you specifically advise me to go buy from the internet instead, when my stated goal here is to buy locally, to help out the brick and mortar guys, and the local economy (if they would just stock what I wanted).  So me buying off the net will help the local guys, how, exactly, rhodesbe, since you seem to have some concern for them?  Not true at all - the rings have to be higher quality as well, due to the violent two-way recoil on magnum springers, to prevent slippage, just as the scope has to be higher quality.  CY is exactly correct.NiKat, did you get my PMs?To clarify, you don't have to spend more than $35 for a HIGH-quality set of rings.  Except you can't find those locally.   I'm not talking here about the high-end tactical type stuff.Oh....Were you under the impression that we were solving world hunger here on the gun boards?  <img src="/images/smilies/rolleyes.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)    :rolleyes:" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /></blockquote>
