It may be just me, but I have noticed that purchasing or even looking at firearms has become a bit anti-climactic for me. I used to get excited knowing there would be a variety of different brands and price points. I can remember when even big box stores carried beautiful wood rifles and shotguns. Every store seems to carry the plastic stock, low-end firearm these days along with AR-style rifles. Even though I own two AR style rifles, I just don't really get too pumped up looking at them. It also used to be that you could actually put your hands on some of them without having to ask an associate. I can remember Gander Mountain used to have all of their firearms in some particular stores out in racks that you could actually personally handle. Just seems like a different time in the evolution of guns that I am not real crazy about.
