Hi Marvin;

You are right as rain on this! The money seems to come and go but the opportunity to be custodian of some rare or even just uncommon desireable object seems to come just once.

Did someone post about the one that got away?

I had an absolutely gorgeous 1900 Eagle for a little while but returned it because it was chambered for 9mm!

Turns out there was some sort of experimental 9mm cartridge development before the 9mm Parabellum and this gun could well have been a genuine item chambered for some hermporphradite 9mm which never reached production!

This piece is not that special; its nice and a little unusual though.
