To make this good buy the gun has to be very high quality in very good original condition. This is a way of compensating for obscure name and short barrels which are not in vogue now because most don't understand very simple concept if the gun fits "if the front half of the gun weights and measures the same and the back half of the gun weights and measures the same, you will shoot the same". The up to 6oz or so weight savings realized from shorter barrels has to be compensated from butt stock end of the gun. One has to remember that one makes money breaks even or looses money at the time the gun is bought not at the time it is sold. This assumes that one takes care of the gun while owning it and doesn't shoot it "to pieces".
