The oilfield here in ND has unfortunately come to a halt. I was fortunate enough to get out and return to my former employer. There are a lot of struggling people out here though. I stumbled across this 1988 vintage hi power with 300 rds and 5 magazines for less than half the going rate. The original owner never shot it. 0110211855a.jpg
 
It's slowed considerably but we are still the #1 oil producing county in the US. Things aren't rosy though as the city manager of the county seat just announced that the town is laying off 30% of it's staff and reducing the other employees salary by 15%. Not all of that comes from the oilfield slow down but from the little Hitler wannna-be governor that has shut down or seriously limited the non big box store's ability to do business.The gunshops here haven't resorted to gouging. Prices have remained pretty steady through the entire mess that 2020 proved to be.

I could do a real rant on the mess the current state government has made of a one nice place to live but that's for a different forum.
 
I hate it when someone has to sell their pride and joy to survive. I'm sure you will give it a good home.
If that deal came to me, unless that person was a good friend of my wife's, I wouldn't have been able to buy it since I just bought a Walther Q5 Match SF Pro competition gun. She's not going to forget that one for a while.
I'm a Browning guy though and would love to have a deal like that come my way.
Good for you!

You want bad government? Move to California.
