Lotsa deals passed up over the years.
One I remember was at the Riveria gun show in Vegas years ago. I had shot my wad over a couple days including 2 NIB Winchester
63.s
Started talking to a tall fella in a big top hat.... he offered a '73 Winchester in .22 Long that had been through his shop and it
was a bang up job. Customer did not want it and I could have had it for $ 1700.00.' Course I had spent several thousand $$$$.
Yeah , you guessed it it was the big guy.
