I think if that gun had been properly described as an early Del Grego restoration, it would have gone for more. I am hoping that the gun has not been used much since its trip to Del Grego. By the way, Larry Sr, used to like to checker the cheeks on low grade full restorations. I think I will find that there is not a through bolt repair under the cheek checkering. I'll tell you about it when it gets here. The VH from last week is a bit more interesting though, a Remington Parker with a 1930 serial number. Who is the lucky guy who bought that one? I don't think he paid too much either, $2400 for a Remington VH in clean condition.
