I am a bit taken aback that amongst the PGCA brotherhood, now that our BOD has graciously allowed us to post doubles for sale (something that apparently the Smith-sonians do not) Dean would get the Pirellis on his Volvo "booted"-- that sort of "peanut gallery" response I would expect on the DoubleGunWorkShoppe and the Gunz & Roses brokerage channel- where a % of the gents offering overpriced guns don't know extractors from ejectors, or a POW grip from a pistol grip-etc--

Come on Dean- give it another shot, and with fotos even. I'll betcha a hood ornament from a 1956 Volvo coupe you'll get some serious interest here on the PGCA--
