I "attended" the auction today (virtually), and was surprised at the unevenness of the hammer prices. As is the case in most auctions, I saw some good deals and some not so good (from an incredibly biased point of view). My wife is so glad I won't bid on single trigger guns or those with beavertail forearms. She is not as happy that I like small bore guns with composite barrels and higher shooting dimensions. Apparently, based on today, I'm not the only one.
Anyone smiling after the auction? I saw the Trojan sell. A very nice gun, and one to keep for a while.
