I missed that 4E, a straight grip at that, straight grip trap guns seem to be on the rarer side? I once owned a Sousa that was a straight grip.

That 5E with a 34” barrel is a cool gun, I would think that is on the rarer side, makes sense to use it as a handicap gun.

I'm wondering if one of you guys got this high condition 1917 4E Flues with a 36" barrel at Cabela's recently?

I think the engraving is fantastic.

wow.....charlie

Wasn`t me... Wish I could say I added to the collection.

This is the only problem I had with that gun. Otherwise it would be in my safe.
Just so you know, Cabela's had the DOM wrong. It is a 1917 or there about; surprise!
I thought I would be dealing on it with them a year from now, but apparently someone decided they liked it, a lot, and took it home.

I don't collect Flues singles, but I would have bought that one.

Nice 4E...

I`d agree. A bit over priced.

Nice Flues with great condition, I do agree that price was high for Flues 4E. But when will you find one in that condition again with 36” barrel?
They offered a Flues 4E with 36” barrel at Rock Island recently, but it had a bulge in the barrel, have to keep looking I guess.

I don't pay any attention to price tags, at a gun store or a gun show. The guy who bought this gun didn't pay the tag price anyway.

Prices
 

Unfortunately, Cabela's isn't the free wheeling dealing outfit they used to be. After Bass Pro took over there are strict orders not to give deep discounts like they used to. Now you're lucky to get 4-5% off, which would still make that gun high priced in my opinion.
