My wife and I have guns from the 80s: her's is a 26" barrel gun that I got at an estate sale for $500; mine is a 28" gun that I bought new for $950. I sold my Sweet 16 and M12 16 ga guns to friends, and bought a MEC 9000 loader for 16 ga. And a case (5,000) of the Win 1 oz wads while they were in production.

Ah, the good old days...jim
