Daisy 953 at Sam's Club / Wal-Mart

[Jetmugg]

Does anyone know if Sam's Club or Wal-Mart is carrying the Daisy model 953 air rifles?  I have read that they sell these rifles for about $40, which is approximately 1/2 price of typical sporting goods store prices.

If anyone can confirm this, I know where I'll be headed after work today.

Let me know if you find out. I think I'm going to sell my Tech Force 97 and try the Daisy 953 as a practice gun for my silhouette matches. I'm hesitant to spend $80+ at the online vendors or local sporting goods stores after hearing that it sells for $40 from Sam's Club or Wal-mart, though.

If anyone wants to make a straight trade, I'll pay shipping on my TF97 (.177 cal) in excellent condition (fired <150 times, because it doesn't fit me well) for a Daisy 953 in excellent or new condition. The TF97 will be shipping in the same box it was shipped to me in with all the original paperwork, of course. I might sell it outright, too, but would rather trade for the Daisy 953.

Jason:
   I want a 953 for the same reason you do - silhouette training.  I'd like to be able to shoot this rifle in my basement, easily and quietly.
   I struck out on the Wally world and Sam's Club options so far.  I checked 2 WalMarts and 1 Sam's Club, with no success.
   I believe that they carried these rifles at one time, but apparently not now.
   I have seen them as low as $70 from online suppliers, but I'm still holding out hope of finding one cheaper.
