Thanks for the headsup on this one. Would be a nice addition to my collection!

[Rugerologist]

That's what I was thinking Charlie!

[Charlie1022]

Now wish me luck on this auction. I got my bid in now an just have to hope I bid high enough. Sure would make a nice addition to go with the nice 4 digit I found this spring at a lgs.

[Charlie1022]

Got notified that someone outbid me on this one. Must be nice to have that much extra
money for toys!

[Rugerologist]

So sorry Charlie. I had planned to call you tomorrow to see what happened. There is an item at auction now that I really would like to add to my collection but know it's not going to happen for me.

[LIBERTY FOREVER]

Keeping my eyes open Charlie, well find another beauty.

I am still looking like always. You just never know what you will find or where!
