I knew the price of this particular gun before I bought it. When I went to look at it the dealer gave it to me for his cost, 200 dollars less than list price. One thing I did read about browning was that I needed to fire two rounds clean the gun and do this for a total of 10 rounds before sighting it in to break the barrel in. I dont know much about breaking it in like this but hey I love to shoot so thats ok for me.
