I shoulda thrown in some sideways and upside down photos, maybe a few underwater shots. Nothing sells a gun like a schitzo with an out-of-focus camera.

It really helps if you choose the busiest looking background you can find in really bright colors. Those blemishes in the gun just fade away

How about a bare foot with a corn on it or a knarly cracked thumb with grease under the nail?

I'll talk to you about it tomorrow over dinner. Unless some one gets off their butt and commits. I might have some stuff that would get your interest.

I'd take a 76" Mccullock in trade. That'll fit in my carry on bag right?

I think I have a 72" and a 96", 76" was an odd number.

I'd really hate to let this one go, I've had it since I was 12. But, if your FFL will receive it, and a few IPA's, I might call it an even swap? ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/VSpc1DP.jpg)

Wonder if that came out of Jed's original F corral? I was wondering the same thing. Jed had some sweet F's.

I have most of Jed's serial and this is not one of them. There must have been a large group of 243's made in this serial range as I have a bunch in my data.
I'm guessing there were 10,000 to 15,000 243's made in the pre-mills.

One is a F, the other has a fancy custom stock, so I don’t know what it is, it has 24” barrel.
