Happy New Year!!
Goal for this year is to find a 243 EG in collector grade condition to put in the safe for the 5 year old.
Not to derail the thread, I have seen a few for sale over the years but I have only seen one in person in my life. It was at one of the 100's of little gun shows I have been too over many, many years. A guy at one of the tables told me he had bought it for $600 from one of the other vendors. I asked him if he would consider selling it to me. I wasn't even able to get the conversation to price. His answer: No.
Good luck with your search, sincerely.
