I think you missed not owning it and selling it for that price.  Somebody had a good day....Ron

Guessing a half dozen relatives bidding on the family rifle. It was fun to watch. All new bidders.

Now the rush to find another one for the next highest bidder
Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

What ever hit that barrel hard enough to put that dent in it should have also destroyed the forend.

I think the dent came from the buyer............right after his last bid won the rifle.

No telling where the bidding would have gone if it didn't have that dent.

Al, I believe you did miss something! That "dent" was made by a sabre blow at the crumbling walls of the Alamo! :P
