Saw a nice one today...
« on: February 19, 2011, 10:08:48 AM »
Went to the gunshow in Lexington Ky this morning and ran across a CZ made for Herters.  300 Win mag, perfect condition...beautiful for $450.  The one time I didn't take a pocketful of cash with me and I can't go back tomorrow.  I may be ill. It was so nice.

Sounds like your smitten.
Kinda like the "Woman in a Red Dress"...
2 choices - go back tomorrow no matter what - with the cash and sweaty palms while wondering if it's still there or.................... regret it forever!  :'(

  Just chalk it up as the one that got away and move on.

  Never live your life with regrets.

I'll be looking for it at the next show.  I'm guessing this time of year a 300 won't be a prime mover and I've seen the same stuff come back around at times.  I'm not heartbroken, but it was pretty, and no dings that I could see. I'll keep my eye out....who knows?
