Then I guess you dont have to worry about buying from this place.

I called last week and left a message about a specific gun. In the message I clearly stated "I want to buy this gun." They never called me back. Business must be too good.

I stopped by today - very friendly and helpful - with a good selection of Guns.

I bought a gun from them yesterday. Mr. McCabe could not have been more accomodating.

Which over priced gun did you purchase ?

Curious question to Homeless Joe. Since your homeless what makes you an expert on someones gun prices?

Boy, that "ignore this user" feature is pretty slick!

Anyway, it was the 30" damascus Chas. Smith, Newark-on-Trent ejector hammergun. It appears to be a solid bottom Scott bar action with rather fine bouquet and scroll. We'll see how it looks when it gets here. Hammer game guns with kickers are very rare and I've been looking for one for some time. It may even warrant new wood and Teague lining if it's a keeper.

I had picked out about four that I thought were your possibilities. The Smith was one of them. The European configured Purdey Pigeon gun was a possibility regardless of its rather late manufacture, but, my gosh, it's choked like a real man's skeet gun. Obviously, some of these guns have been relieved a bit to be more suitable as game guns. Of course, some Purdey game guns for the US trade were made on pigeon gun actions to get the heavy proof. Apparently, Purdey was not fond of sending their game guns for 1 1/4 ounce proof. I still like that gun for its heavy proof and condition.

Answer to the curious question by "Theprofessional"....I'm not really homeless.

I got a couple of "curious questions" for you...Mr. Professional

What makes you a professional ?

And how much you getting paid for advertising his gun shop on this website ?

To answer your question stud here's the skinny. I live in Texas. I dont get paid for advertising as I'm sure people who have stores can do it themselves.
What makes me a professional? Simple. Six years of pro fights and a championship belt for the troubles. Of course being a success at that gave me a bit more coin to buy guns which is my hobby.
I'm always interested in how people come up with what they feel is a good price for guns since the majority of self proclaimed experts cant afford to do so.
