I was surprised to see the SA sell for $10,000 plus 20% buyer's premium for internet buyers. The Daly Regent Diamond sold for $11,000 plus BP. I guess single traps aren't all that out of favor. I have been looking at both guns at the Chantilly VA show for a year or two, made fair offers on the SA, but somehow my offers were refused and the two guns showed up at the auction. I offered more than the consigners will get, but I assume the dealer who had the guns at Chantilly was taking a cut also. Chuck, does the actual stock book show Grade 4, or are we going by the Serialization Book entry? I had no doubts about the gun and hope someone here got it.
