Every red blooded American needs to own a Guide Gun. Mine dropped an 800 pound bison in its tracks. I got rid of the idiot button. Good luck on selling a true classic.

It has just sit in the safe. I have a second one that is also ported that I have taken several deer and pigs with and I have not noticed any extra noise. Maybe my hearing is gone, I don’t think so. Thanks for looking.
