All,
As I have mentioned many times on this forum, this Navy Loogie stuff is a high stakes game. It ain't for the ignorant or arrogant or indigent. Every time I buy one I assume it is bad until convinced otherwise by a detailed disassembly and thorough, methodical examination. Occasionally I even seek other's opinions if I have doubts but am uncertain.
For this reason, I seldom buy at shows (Ever notice the fine print in many dealer's T's&C's in their ads "All show sales are final")unless I know the dealer personally and have an asurance of right of return after examination.
After all, tired old eyes, poor show lighting and the jostling of a crowd are not condusive to making a good several thousand dollar bet..at least not in my book.
Tom A.
