Yes indeed, I can put up with people more liberal than me and a 10 day wait for guns in exchange for living with perfect weather, a 2 hour drive to the Monterey Area, 2 hours to the Napa wine country, an hour from the coast and 4 hours to our place in Tahoe. California is great.

Kooz-
Did you get one? I snoozed when I saw them for $249 and missed out. I just ordered one and cheapest I could find (called 6 local shops) was $269. Can't wait to get and shoot it.
