Are they worth the effort?

Not for me. When I was a youngster I tended to buy what I saw.
A milsurp is probably the only thing I'm likely to buy because I saw it somewhere.
Nowadays I decide what I want first, then order it.
I rarely browse gunshops, just order what I want and go pick it up.
Since moving to Victoria in late 2014, I've bought 14 rifles and a shotgun, but I doubt I've been into a gunshop much more than two-dozen times.
I've managed to avoid Melbourne so far (I visited in '92, again in '02, and flew across from Perth for Warhorse at the Arts Theatre in '12).
