Default parker repro's at auction

Comprende! You got to know these guys. Since Jim Supica left and went to the NRA things have gotten a little loose compared to before. It may be a catalog misprint, or one of the local "experts" thinks a 28ga. should bring more, it's hard to tell.I recently bought a Mannlicher-Schoenauer carbine from them at a decent price but they [or someone] had removed the slide and rings of the original Jaeger mount. The base was still intact. I called Jim on something else and asked if it was their policy to remove scopes and sell them separately at auction and he said they had done that in the past. They aren't sharp enough to know mounts like G&H and Jaeger are custom fitted and anybody would have paid more with the mount intact with or without the scope. I will say one thing in their favor, the condition descriptions have been pretty accurate for the most part, if not slightly understated.Regards! Lee.
