Well, almost.
I was at the local pawn shop. Really, it is the best gun store around these parts and a nice store at that.
I'm checking out the selection of 100+ autos, looking for a new carry weapon. In walks this lady with two Kimber pistol cases and she mentions to the counter person that she is here to sell the two Kimbers and has alreday negotiated a price with the owner.
I couldn't help but ask to see what was in those cases. Enquiring minds need to know!
Turns out both are unfired and one is an Ultra Carry. Just what I am looking for and can find very few of. Lady lets me fondle the Ultra Carry while the counter help is doing the paper work.
Seems this wonderful wife had bought them for her husband and he didn't want them (I suspect they just needed the cash). Anyway, whilst lusting over this baby, the counter lady mentions the price the store is paying is $1600. For both! Yep, the shop is buying two brand new never fired in the box Kimbers for $800 each!
I offered to buy the Ultra Carry for $900 and was told "Sorry, we already have deal". So I ask about the new selling price: $1300 each.
I may still cry.
