NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.
I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

Well, I for one think it is a bargin. A left handed Cooper, if I was left handed or had a son left handed I would be all over this. That knot won't affect anything and I am sure that if a problem arose that Cooper would stand behind it 100%. I have owned several coopers and their customer service is second to none.

I think it’s a pretty piece of wood and I normally don’t like light colored wood. Might be just the photo, but this wood has a nice “warmth†to it that allot of lighter wood doesn’t have.
I also agree with jimmyd223, that little knot isn’t going to hurt anything structurally, and if it bothered a guy that much there are plenty of good stock makers out there that could make it pretty much disappear for you.

George, that is very true, if you were paying an "extra" grand for the stock. It is a no reserve and the high bid is 1225.00, which is less than a standaerd gun. So from that stand point I see it as a bargin.

Just to be clear, it isn't my gun, nor am I a left handed shooter. OTOH, I agree with the "pluses" above, I kind of like the stock look, it is something different to talk about on the range, etc. and if I was a lefty and if it was chambered in almost anything but that cartridge, I'd be all over it at anywhere near those numbers.
