agreed - its not a numbers game, but its a heck of a lot of fun to come up with a nice find. (not unlike my too many prints) I walked away from a 28 bore double back action muzzleloader this weekend, Just decided -although it was a very unusual piece, don't think I have seen one before - I wouldn't use it much, and it had been aggressively cleaned.
I of course kept the guy's card in case. My lovely wife even asked the next morning if I wanted to go back for it.
Still thinking hard about a little 20 Fox I know of though. Its been restocked, but I can always use another rainy day bird gun
not being a number game work both ways
