Why do I have way more class and taste than my bank account can afford? Gorgeous piece. I hope the person it goes to cherishes it like the Red Ryder BB gun from A Christmas Story.

Not necessarily finished with Africa. I love this rifle. It is as if it was built for me specifically. I just can't justify having it languish in my safe. It deserves to be used with purpose more than punching holes in paper.

BTW, why would Joyce need anything for Christmas? She has me. sofa

Cheers
Jim

Do you know what year yours was built? I'm not seeing a pattern in our sample of three.
