Jones has had some nice Lindners over the years. It is kind of odd that so many short tang straight grip guns have shown up, but I would judge each gun by personal inspection. The ten gauge fluid steel gun that he is hawking is a genuine bargain. I can't believe the price. He once had a fluid steel eight, priced at $10,000. I tried to buy that gun but he would not come off the price by a dollar. Apparently, in a soft market, he is a bit more liberal.
