Title: The Wife's New Rifle.
Post by: coriantonk on February 06, 2010, 08:09:42 PM: We got back from Cabellas this evening and I had to rearrange my gun cabinet again. :IBCOOL: My wife told me that she wants to go deer hunting this year. We walked away from the store with a brand new Marlin XL7 youth model with the Cabellas Pine Ridge 3-9x40. I am a lucky man!! When we got home my wife got this little smirk on her face and said "I like my new gun". Cant wait to take her shooting and see how it well works.

The whole set up, everything was on sale except for the scope rings and the total was just shy of $360. The guys behind the counter were very helpfull. But man does it get crowded in there.
