I still love the gun and I can live with it even though I may have paid a few hundred too much.

Jeff, A very wise, old collector told me "You never pay too much but sometimes you buy too soon." My philosophy is; if I want it and can afford it, I buy it. These guns offer so much more than utility. Study every mark and scratch on the gun and imagine what adventure, or misadventure caused it. Enjoy your "new" best friend.
