Sigh (heavy sign) (HEAVY SIGH). No, I did not see this auction. This carbine has a lot of appeal to me. Granted it is not high condition but it is in incredibly honest condition and in decent condition (to me). And of course very rare. I never did connect with one of these in .300. The box is a nice touch, particularly on a variation that is the rarest of all the H's.
As far as wishing I had spotted the auction before it ended, it is important to remember that while it went cheap, that hardly means the next bid increment would take it. I don't think the winning bidder would have backed away easily
Congratulations to the winner
