I have probably missed hundreds of great guns from Green Top and Clark Brothers over the years. However, one Mister Clark had a pristine, never gone hunting, Prussian Lindner Daly, Krupp barrel eight gauge that had been hawked at a five figure price in the store and at shows for some time. One day, on a whim, I packed the truck with some Winchester shotguns that, I thought, would be of interest to one of Mr. Clark's employees. Sure enough, after a brief parking lot transaction, I owned the big eight and two of my surplus Winchesters went to Virginia. I never understood how my average at best, Winchester skeet guns could trade even for the rare and beautiful German duck gun. Apparently, Mr. Clark had a very generous employee discount policy.
