The old hammer guns get my vote .

I'll bet a lot of us went right to our ID & Serialization books when Greg posted that one - but it truly is a AHE 12/30" with straight grip. VERY unusual engraving, and very nice!

Personally, I would not entrust my high-grade Parker with airline "baggage" but instead, I would ship it in advance to an FFL in the area - not as a transfer but as if it were going for repair.

Is there such a dealer in Vegas who would accommodate this?

Dean I feel the same way I would not trust my guns to airline baggage even though they are insured. I would like to participate in Vegas if a better shipping option was made available.

It was priced at $17K which I felt was a pretty fair price at the time.

Dean's idea is perfect. I would have to pay $35 each way for an extra checked bag anyway.
Can we get some ideas for FFL dealers in the Vegas area?
I would volunteer to make a group deal.

The CEP guns are an Exhibition by themselves.
