And if I had money to burn I'd be bidding against you. That's sweet.

Pretty cool that the box survived all this time. I'd sure like to know the full story of that gun.

You could sell 5 of those gold coins you threw under the mattress when they were $300 a piece.

I've never understood the appeal of a gun that is in such good condition and and hence so valuable the owner won't shoot it.
Then again I've never understood owning guns just to have them vs. having them to shoot them.

That seller (wimer) is notoriously over-priced.

That seller (wimer) is notoriously over-priced. Yep Yep YEP $6,000 and the grips aren't even numbered to the gun! Some of the niche .44 specials are outrageously expensive, IMHO. I'd rather have a Registered Magnum even if I had to spend a few thousand more for a comparable package. Or, 8-10 flat latch J frames sounds nice too. Maybe three K22 Outdoorsman? Two or three five screw .44 magnums?

George Wimer has some really nice stuff and he does occasionally actually sell something but he's notoriously, grossly overpriced. He's an a-s-s-h-o-l-e to boot.
