A couple of years back I found a Colt SAA in .44 special in the Denver Cabelas and decided to buy it. A guy can't have too many Colt SAA's.... Got the price and had to go out of the gunroom to a separate counter to pay for it. When they added the 7% sales tax on it was too much, but I choked and bought it. The .44 special is a very easy shooting caliber for the SAA. I shoulda just walked away. 7% on a gun of over $1000 just took it too high. Can't see myself buying any more guns from that shop.

Yeah; the word is that Cabela's wouldn't open here unless they got a west bound exit off the K-96 bypass. Then the city added 1.2% to the regular sales tax to pay for it. 8.7% in the "Community Improvement District" while everywhere else in town it is 7.5 %.
