Evidently, the slothturd refuses to sell it to us, correct ?

Seems that way.

Well, how everyone’s Friday?

I just poured some of my 14 year old Balvenie

@radar8756 hasnt been back in this thread since he mentioned selling the gun. Multiple people have @ mentioned him and no response. Waited a couple days and posted a WTS add, knowing we were willing to pool money and buy it back. Wtf, man?

I don’t know what that is, but you had me at aged 14years.

I did in brief and encouraged that staff member to reach out to me via phone or INGO.

Attended the funeral celebration of life of my wife’s great Aunt today.

Got to see family on my wife’s side that we don’t get to see often (from Iowa). The neat part is I was able to get more history about some of Dad’s guns he passed on. Particularly an old bolt action Steven’s model 120 in .22lr. I knew there had to be something about it, but none of the family here knew anything about it. I mentioned it to Uncle Joe (Dad’s brother) and it turns out that it was his Grandpa’s and the rifle that all the kids down the line learned to shoot on, including Dad. Stories were told. Memories revived. And legends will live on and be passed down to my kids.

Single malt scotch—some of my better stash

With as many of us that said we'd chip in, I know we could've got $1,000.

You can delete conversations to fix that you know.

I'm tempted to say **** that, give him his $50 back and go get the gun. This wasn't just any other raffle.

Win a gun at friends of the NRA? Sure, sell it if you don't want to keep it.

Win a keepsake during a family event and sell it 2 weeks later. **** you.

As this thread has shown these past few days, it’s not the gun - it is the story that follows it.

Guns can be replaced. Money can be earned. History only happens once.

Knowing the circumstances, I wouldn't expect any body on INGO to buy and out of this group selling a gun as personalized as that one is won't be in much demand.

Most of my conversations are with the Mouse, BA, Leadeye etc. I prefer to keep them

 

[rkwhyte2]

So pay the $20. Problem solved.

Exactly 100%

At first he didn’t know anything but as I described the gun I could see the light bulb come on and his eyes lit up.

It has history as a squirrel slayer. One of the stories: Dad’s Dad made all the boys a deal about squirrel hunting. If they made clean head shots he’d clean them for them, but anything else and they had to clean the squirrels themselves.

To anyone else it just looks like an old nothing special rifle with a street value of $75. But Uncle Joe made me promise “you can’t ever sell that rifle”. But it didn’t need said, it’s an heirloom.
