yes, over the years I have seen and heard of a dealer using a four yr old guide to buy and a new one to sell...
SOLD items on gunbroker, auction arms, take 25% off what sells at Rock Island (not the fees mind you, but so many idiots that have no idea what they are buying). And yes, still decent deals at auctions, but the more they go on-line, that is good for them. The local auction went on-line and the prices are too high to get a good deal.
The comment field on the Erfurts is inaccurate to stupidity (Oh no, I sound like Jerry
). I get tired of 'all' erfurts having a rough finish silliness, and the '5 digit' comment is not true.
