Aaahh, I see. I wish there were a store like that around here, but most of the places that actually have guns are big name corporations like Cabelas, Bass Pro Shops, etc. There is one that is a local store, but they're pretty rigid with their pricing and don't really cut deals like that.

I'm still learning to reload, so right now, it can seem to be more of a hassle just because I'm not used to it right now. In time, I suppose...

By the way, that is one UGLY gun...

a tool is anything you use to help you get a job done. I agree it is an ugly gun though.

Yes, but for some, it is not used for work. Would you consider a baseball bat to be a tool? If so, then we have different definitions and there is no point in continuing this discussion. Personally, I use them for leisurely target shooting.

I guess what I'm trying to say is yes guns are tools, just not to me.
