I've discussed a gun with John Boyd. He was absolutely truthful and receptive to my questions in reference to the gun. I did not find him to be put off by any of my questions, which were thorough and extensive. I purchased this particular gun from John, at a fair price and the item was as described. I was an interested party and not a tire kicker and I was treated well by John. Frankly, I don't blame him for being put off by the tire kicker customer. I'm not a gun dealer, but have sold a few guns along the way. I've had people approach me regarding some of my guns. A friend of mine was interested in a pigeon grade 101 I own. He asked me if I would sell it to him for 'what I had in it'. I thought about it and said yes, because he's my buddy. Then, he wanted to shoot it. Mind you, this is a 99% Win 101 pigeon. I let him shoot it and he shot it great. Then, he said, well I will think about it. I'm not sure I want to spend $1000 for a brand new Win 101 pigeon grade trap. It does kick a bit. So, he handed it back to me to take home and clean......and yeah, I know what John means. My tire kucking buddy sort of pissed me off and affirmed my belief that no good deed deserves to go unpunished.
