Josh I see nothing wrong with his comment, he did not say anything disparaging about Julias, just pointed out the facts. Eric

A friend spied a AAHE 12 gauge bird gun at Butterfield's in California some years ago. The description included "barrel walls under recommended minimums" the British norm as far as descriptions of overhoned barrels go. I found the gun in a Parker Brothers Abercrombie and Fitch order where it was described as a 6 1/2 pound gun to be made "light as possible". My friend was able to purchase the gun for about $10,000 because of the cautious description. When the gun arrived, it was found to be in high unmolested condition with absolutely original bores. Do your homework and you will be rewarded.

I think that Julia's does a tremendous job cataloging their sales. Thats why they get such high sales prices for their customers. And they get rewarded when they bring in the big bucks, so there is incentive for them to do a good job.
Just think if they were a branch of the USPS.........They would charge a high commission, get a low sales price and then lose the gun.
