There is one guy on Gunbroker that has thousands of desireable doubles that are all overpriced and I have never seen him sell one. Gunsinternational is the same. There are well known dealers I know who have enormous numbers of desireable classics who I also believe sell very few guns. I have made the same comment before, but I think it applies more to overpriced, intransigent dealers than to actual collectors.

Anything is only worth what someone is willing to pay. I have a thingy and believe it's worth at $10k and publish a FS ad.

The market offers $2k.......

It's worth $2k.

You are a spring chicken Bill. I'm 80 and feeling top drawer. Stopped shooting a few years ago, but I'm getting back into it. Not dead yet and loving life! I also own a SBT. I haven't shot it for sometime because I've been ill, but I'm all healed up and rar'n to go!

Every day is a good day when you can shoot and enjoy the company of friends, regardless of age, I am 83 and love a good cigar and a Parker shotgun and afterwards a little nip of good bourbon, when I get too old to shoot shotguns, I might be in a pine box somewhere, with the ashes of some good dogs.

Gary, I shoot skeet at my club plymouth rod and gun every Sunday morning. I try to get there at least an hr early with a dozen donuts. I'll sit outside with one of my club member friend and enjoy a nice fine cigar with freshly brewed cup of coffee. Shooting skeet has become almost secondary to enjoying that nice cigar. It's the only time each week that I'll smoke a cigar.

There is another Shelly Gitman single trap out there among us. Maybe some day he will come forward.
