After two years, todayI will get to look at a pre war 250 which was described as an RS in excellent condition. If I am lucky it will be an RT.  Owner has owned it since 1946 and he bought it used. Has changed his mind about selling it two times previously. Ah! the pursuit, thats the fun part. Likely will have to borrow some money if its a T. GW

Shattered my dream. Turned out to be a post war R with an added Redfield peep. Excellent condition overall. 88 year old owner
changed his mind again about selling. I didn't mind at all, suspect I would have been disappointed had it been a 250 T. Well on to the next one, the thrill of the hunt. GW

If I remember correctly we talked about it. Glad you got a look at it. Each time you sleep you find another dream.

First Gov 45 auto that I shot took me right at 50 years to own. I am pretty determined when I decide I can't live without a certain gun. Problem now is the shortage of years left to pursue all those 99's that I think I need.  Wife suggested that my time might be shorter than I think, she was looking at 99's when she made that remark. She may be right, better get back to the hunt. GW
