Default Too good to pass up

Not ML related but....Stopped by my favorite gun shop tonight to see what came in. Browsing the used gun racks really searching for a T/C or Lyman flinter. But I am a sucker for lever guns. I know the old 94s are going for $400 plus these days. And there were several on the racks. But I happen to pick one up to look at. First thing I noticed was a handling scratch from wht looked like a meeting with a rock. Nothing major but about 1/4" long and 1/8" wide. Purely cosmetic. Checked the barrel stamping and it was a 32 Win Spl. Oh boy I thought this one's gonna have a healthy tag on it. I was totally shocked to see the tag read $250.I checked the bore and other than a bit of dirt, looked excellent. I took it up to the front and asked owner (who is also my gunsmith) if there was anything wrong with it. He said not that he knows of.(and yes, I trust him) So I brought it home with me along with a box of ammo. Looks like I will be trying it out this weekend.
