I'm one of the cool kids now. On a whim I stopped into Columbus Pawn on 31 today. They usually want close to new prices for used stuff, but I couldn't pass up $299 for a NIB 452 Varmint in .22 LR. There are a few idiot marks just in front of the bottom of the buttpad, but I can live with it. There's also a unique hourglass pattern in the right side of the stock. I don't know if there's such a thing as cosmetic 2nds for these, but that's my only idea on why it was $299. Oh well...as much as I like pretty walnut, I buy guns to shoot, not to look at. I can put the difference towards a Vortex Viper 4-14x from Vette.

From what I've read, a rifle basix trigger and DIP base are about standard equipment. Anyone have a lead on a good deal on these? Ideally I'd get them from the same place to save on shipping. Thoughts?
