Gunshow Topper
« on: April 15, 2011, 05:44:30 PM »
Went to a gunshow recently, spied a Topper in 20 gauge for $105.  Not a bad buy, but it was early in the show and I wanted to look around.  The seller saw that I was about to depart his table and said those magic words, "It really isn't a bad price for a two  barrel set".  He then produced the 30-30 barrel and I was a happy boy indeed!

That is a good deal, I hope that means you left with it. ;)

Thanks, Dinny

I would have jumped on that in a split second, I hope you did.
