A few years ago (2011), somebody on this forum mentioned an Armslist ad that sounded too good to be true: SAKO L579, 7mm-08 Pacnor tube, MacMillan stock, Leupold rings, ammo, $550.

I immediately checked it out and discovered that my cousin lived about 10 miles from the guy. While people on the forum were debating whether it was legit, my cousin contacted the guy, went to his house, and bought the rifle (for me). Two mule deer and two whitetails later, I still think it's one of my best gun deals.
