nice cheek piece, is that part of the "restoration"

and the white screw heads make a nice contrast

I agree with all of the above but sure wish the photos could be in focus. It is amazing when people ask lots of money for a firearm but can't be bothered to take decent pictures representing what they are trying to sell. I like the O/U part too. Must be an amazing shotgun.

Kevin also speaks in the "third person" as in "Kevin can you do any better on the price?" "No sorry, Kevin likes this gun. Kevin knows how to price them." Like circus clowns, I find this habit oddly creepy

They have had a DHE 12 ga. for $15000 it's been for sale for at least 10 years. It's a nice gun, but you would think after that long they would wonder what the problem was?

Ive noticed that gun prices seem to be all over the place these days. But, Ive also noticed its not just guns. House prices, used cars, you name it. Some people seem to recognize that things have changed and price things to sell and some still think they can make a big score and that 2008 never happened.

Ummm.., lets see now: 24-inch "original" barrels, 1 of 1 listed in TPS; bizzarely out-of-focus shot of the muzzles (where are the keel police?), complete with cheekpiece. Smallbore columbaire gun for indoor events? Railbird gun where a mounted gun is required by club rules? Specimen gun for collecting Ivory-billed woodpeckers where steadiness in the canoe while shooting up into the trees is required (short barrels so specimen is not mangled)? The possibilities of reality are endless. Its the way things are in Thomasville since Nash quit judging down there.
