I had one and it was missing parts when I acquired it. Highpoint stands by there products with a lifetime warranty even when you get one used. They are the best company to deal with that I have dealt with and after I installed the missing parts perfect performance. Don't be afraid of one of them.

Last season on Thanksgiving morning I peed off of my treestand and turned around too see a buck and three does coming down a trail about 100 yards away and waited till they got 30 yards and killed a buck and a doe.Prior to that I carried a jug and I no longer carry it.

I would handle it my way, by myself just me and him. Your word against his. I am not saying its right but I know harassing elderly people is definitely not but that's just me.
