Buy a Manson gauge for a hundred bucks and measure the thing to death, John. Advertise it with the measurements you come up with and let them measure it after they send you the check. Have I told you about my friend who bought an absolutley screaming AAHE that was advertised at auction as "under safe wall dimensions" in the auction description? He bought it for about $10,000. It turned out to be an Abercrombie gun that had been ordered to weigh 6 1/2 pounds and was as right as rain. Today it is a $??? gun because of its rarity, originality, and high condition.
