I have never walked away from a good gun at a good price. I define good price as 20% off retail if I need it, 50% off retail if I dont need it but want it, and 70% off retail if I dont need it and dont want it, but can flip it for twice what I paid. I have walked away from dozens of guns I like and want but dont need at retail prices. Of course, my paradigm fails when it comes to 5 figure and up guns. Cant afford them to begin with.

I missed a barely used WBY UL in .240 that a buddy grabbed when I said no at a steal of a deal. I setup the rifle for him with glass and a custom load and it shoots lights out. He has let me hunt with it a few times and I really enjoy it. I kick myself for passing on it and will get one at some point.

Just recently at Guns Galore.....30-06 Husqvarna with commercial large ring action for $399. Thinking what would I do with another 30-06?
Went back a week later and it was gone.
Last year a Ruger M77 stainless .338 WM in a boat paddle stock. Don't recall the price but it was within my trading/purchasing power.

A 77 RSI in 270 for $400, a Rem 721 in 300H&H for $300, and a Colt Delta Elite in 10mm for $500.
Oh well.
