Hard to find them calibrated in inch/pounds though in most hardware stores. And if they are, they are generally more oriented towards the automobile scales, 120 inch/pounds vs the 10-40 inch/pounds you use for scopes rings and such.
You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
