Anybody have $16,000 burning a hole in their pocket?

I have seen and drooled over that myself. I even thought about buying them and selling off the ones I didn’t want. There are a few in that collection that are hard to come by.

If you buy the collection, will you take payments for the 5.5" .22lr?

Ya, I think that has been on there for a quite a while now. It must be nice to have that kind of money to have guns for decoration!

pab1, I looked at those last week and was about to write a check when I realized, the caliber/barrel length combinations just wasn't what I prefer....LOL

Yeah the caliber & barrel lengths just don't thrill me. That guy would be a lot better off if he just broke them up to sell them and he'll have to come off the prices some.

Who freakin' cares that all the SN's are "12". Certainly not me. If the collection were little more desireable to my uses I would certainly do it. A collection of used guns w/ dies, brass, bullets and optics would be more up my alley.

I borrowed $20K to buy a truck that will rot away, breakdown and be worth nothing after time...I'd certainly borrow $16K for a collection that would last forever.

Nice!
Only one problem....rear sights have little adjustment for real long range use?
My field grade FA 10 44Mag has a ton of left/right up/down with quick on the spot adjustments needed when out hunting in real world situations.
Still.....might turn in one of my CD's without the WIFE knowing about it?
