Down To Two

There are only two (maybe even four) gun shops left to check for a local acquisition of a 5-1/2" barreled artillery model.

Both are inconveniently located and one is even a slog.

The one that's a slog is also one that's always felt somewhat "off" to me.

The vibe of the place is wrong in a way I can't quite put my finger on.

The easier to get to place was one I hit often and now...  Well they never seem to have anything I want when I have money; so I just stopped checking.

The two other 'maybe' stores are places where the gun I'm looking for might just wander in on its own; but it's a hit and miss proposition.
