I think in my limited years collecting and acquiring various vintage SXS of America makers my biggest mistake is making a fuss to myself over the price. Now, granted I am not venturing into the very high price range here yet, but as I was hunting this last fall and my mind was wondering I began to ask myself how much money I have spent on guns in my life. After a solid 1/2 mile worth of thinking and not paying attention to the dog and missing flushes, I came to the conclusion I haven’t a clue. Then I started thinking if there were any I did not get enjoyment out of, which I couldn’t name one. It was at that moment that I decided the price of what I want is irrelevant, so long as its in reason. I still try to verify things to make sure I don’t get burned by an extreme amount- and it hasn’t happened yet. But I have passed on some nice guns because i felt they were 2 or 300 overpriced. Never again.
