I recall being in a gunshop back in the early 90's when a kid brought in a complete cased Borchardt Rig in 99% condition. He had inherited it from his Grandfather to sell for college funds. He wanted $2000.00 for it. The shop owner told him he would give him $800.00 max.

Another customer flat told the kid that he was getting robbed at that price. The kid didn't sell it to the dealer. I wish I had known then what I know now. I would have taken out a second mortgage.
