410 single shot shotguns are almost there, you can buy a used ‘barn gun’ for the cost of 3 boxes of shells.

Gah! I’d love to take advantage of that deal! That’s what .22 rifles are going for at Dick’s – and that’s the cheap ones! But, the Boss said no – and the budget’s a bit tight as it is. And, of course, that would mean having to buy some other accessories, like a case, cleaning kit, ammo, etc…so the true cost would be double that. 🙂
