I'm a big advocate of buying guns with O.P.M. (other peoples money). I have sold blood plasma, robbed Peter to pay Paul then mugged Paul, Visa it's everywhere fine guns are sold, home equity loans and 0% credit card offers all in the pursuit of a fine Parker or a Pre 64 Winchester M70.

I therefor define rational behavior as not using any of the above methods of finance to purchase the H&H Royal 16 at $30K+. It was a nice gun, I liked it, I wanted it but for once I listened to that faint inner voice and reluctantly but rightly passed

A friend who checks in here occasionally will identify with the situation of which you speak. He once had long term custody of a matched cased pair of 16 gauge Holland and Holland Royals. Somehow they slipped away. Maybe he will relate the sad story.

luckily - i don't require justification - I have all the guns I need,

but I discovered that each new dog arrives without a double of his own, and that just isn't fair. So I buy them one as a welcome to the new home present.
