Invincibles

[Dean Romig]

The three Invincibles were on display at the Annual Banquet in Maryland two years ago and we all got to see them right up close, even as they were being placed in the glass observation case. They all are quite an expression of the gunmaker's art, to say the least. The curator, and I'm ashamed to say I don't recall his name, asked me what I thought they, collectively, might be worth... I suggested something like $3 million to which he replied that they had turned down $4 million just weeks before they were displayed at the Banquet. So now they have turned down $5 million... I wonder if the offered sum might ever be accepted? I sure hope not. It's nice to know that they can be viewed by the public anytime someone wishes to visit the National Firearms Museum.

Me, a player? Not even by an extremely loooooong stretch!

you could have just made the excuse that none were small bores so you'll pass
