My neighbor would jump at the chance to have your gun because he is from an old ranching family who puts value on usability rather than originality. It all depends on what you, the buyer, are looking for. It matters not what the rest of us think.

I understand what you are saying. The gun is worth all of what I paid for it ....to me. I'm wondering if more people would be inclined to spend $550 on a gun like mine (as a shooter) or a beat up 10% original Trojan. After all....most people (that I know) that like guns don't have $10k+ to spend on a perfect gun that will just sit in the safe.
Now that I know that you wouldn't but a gun like mine and some here would.....would you spend $550 on a beat up 10% Trojan? I would like others to wiegh in on this also please. I'm just trying to get a feel for what I should be looking for at the next show.
Any comments on the wood to metal fit. It looks pretty good to me. Any information good or bad will help me a lot.
Thanks in advance,
Greg
