Well it looks as if you were able to get a large price reduction on a gun I tried to buy. I paid to have the gun shipped from Maine to the store in Richmond. I examined the gun and it needing work (new pad to lengthen, refinishing the wood, recutting checkering, removing pitting and reengraving on the left side) to get it in the condition I wanted, I tried to get a price reduction. I was told absolutely $1900 was the lowest they would do based upon what they had paid for it, not a penny less so I walked away (both stores said the same thing). I left my name and number with Richard, the manager down there if they would do better. I know he still had my info since he had my FFL on file. So much for Cabelas' business.

Not the first time I've been screwed by a so called gun library. I had a Parker Trojan 20 on hold at a Gander Mountain one time, and when I went back they would not sell it to me. Defective. Crack behind the tang. Said they had to "destroy" it. I imagine the manager who refused to let me leave with it took it home.

The 10 is the gun I opened a thread about opening chambers on the Super Ten to 3 1/2 inches.

p.s. The 10 is the reason I sold the recent 20 Trojan with hopes of buying. Oh well.
