Oldschool shooter

He will probably have a price in mind, just trying to get an Idea of value so that I can make a reaonable counter offer if necessary. If he is asking too much, I will pass on it.
Good tack. I dig it.Bring $550 cash the day yoy look at it, tell him all you got is Five fiddy cash . 5 100s and a 50 should do it. Trust me . BTW early HPs don't usually do well with HP or SP ammo. But if you want it for a range shooter use ball FMJ ammo and it's all good. PS FMJ 9mm ammo worked on people for 100 years quite well.
Benjamins weren't going to impress him. He owns Merkel & Krieghoff shotguns and a Churchill double rifle. He wasn't selling because he needs the money.I doubt you brought along the Benjamins like I recommended. Works wonders the sight of them for those "proud" folks . Sometimes it doesn't but they usually call you back a week later or so if they really want to sell something is you are off a couple hundred or so. You would have been in the right range for it to work at $550-600 green ones .
Have you seen the surplus ones? Not great shape and look like they need a refinish.
You never know, sometimes people are living high on the credit card, monthly interest payments only.Benjamins weren't going to impress him. He owns Merkel & Krieghoff shotguns and a Churchill double rifle. He wasn't selling because he needs the money.
