Gun regrets, "the one that got away".
Gun regrets, "the one that got away".
I'm sure we all have had a few times in our lives that we were going to buy or could have bought, swapped or picked up a great deal on a special piece that just got away. I've had plenty like years back maybe around 1975 or so...before all the tighter gun laws and good computer tracking...I was in a bar (lot of good stories start that way). I was talking to this guy, didn't really know him, got around to talking about guns he later said could use the money and had a gun to sell, a chrome S&W Model 29 said "it was never fired", hmmmm, well I said maybe. He went out to his car and brought it in (the bar owner was a relative, no sweat there) well it was immaculate!! Set in a beautiful case, all the extras, cleaning brushes the works. Wanted $400, went down to $200 and I had the cash.....but I kept thinking is it hot or whatever, I passed. Geezzzz, did I let a gem get away? I think about it every time I see a big .44. |
