An artillery on Auction Arms

Dwight Gruber · 12-04-2002, 01:17 AM

This is a relisting, the gun has been noted and discussed here before.

It is true that LP-08 prices can spiral totally beyond all reason. I'm not sure what you mean by an Artillery "buy", but I do know--have seen--have personal experience--that mismatched shootable guns, reblues, and matched but moderate condition Artilleries can be bought resonably, if not downright cheaply. It can happen, I know of three moderate price LP-08 sales just here in the Portland area since Spring.

But, you have to be dedicated about it, haunt gun shops, pawn shops, and gun shows until you come up with one. Don't expect to find a bargain on line or in a gun auction unless you know how to really work the system, or get -really- lucky.

Don't give up,and good hunting.
