No, just that you have a very uncommon feature for a Grade 2.

Well, I have to say not all the high grades or one of a kind go very cheap' it depends on a lot of factors that we all know about, condition and how rare it is usually determines the price, That said you do see some auctions and such with guns bringing less than we would like to see because in the end those prices affect us all, high grade or low grade. For instance the 20g a A-1 Special that sold in Julias last month and the Grade 3 20g a lifter that sold in the march auction! Gary

It is not just guns affected by the down turn, art is in the same category and selling in this market is very scary. David

I look at it like buying stock, when the stock drops you have a choice to buy or sell. In my case I always buy, and this includes Parkers. It's a great time to acquire if you have the means to do so. On the other hand if your trying to "cash in" on one you have had for years you may have missed the bubble. JMHO
