They know they have a bad gun, they priced it like it is a good gun, and hope for an uninformed customer to come along. Shame on them. They know exactly what this gun is and they did not say a word about it in the description.

So, which is it? A "Nice gun." or a "bad gun" ?

Edgar, it is a nice gun, but a bad gun for the asking price and with an incorrect description. Bob, I apologize for assuming the gun department at Griffin and Howe should have known what they had. I am perfectly willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. It's still a nice gun at the right price and with an honest description.

So I guess you mean it's a nice gun but the asking price is too high. By your definition, I've seen some that were still bad if they were free.

Edgar, We are on the way in a few moments. While I am there I will be happy to collect up all your freee guns.... Not to worry though I will return the case's.

Good point, Edgar. Some guns are no good at any price. However, the GHE at Griffin and Howe is not one of those.
