scored a deal
« on: April 30, 2012, 12:38:42 PM »
My forester was looking to sell some guns and I'm getting a Rem 11-87 12 guage off him in nearly new condition for 200 euros. Thats like $270.  :IBCOOL:

Probably going to come with a case or two of shells.  :IBCOOL:

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

He also had an older Winchester model 70 .243 mounted with a sworovski habicht 2.2-9x42 with super nice claw mounts. At first he said "what do you think i should ask for it..... 400?"   :yike: :yike: :yike:

I told him we better ask for a grand and let them low ball us.

Addicted, you will need a storage container for all the guns you are bringing home when you are done in Germany, lol

Nice deal!

I couldnt do both. My wife's patience only goes so far. The 11-87 does let me get a really beat up SXS though so i'll have a shotgun for sure if I have the SXS taken apart for sandblasting and cerekote.

With todays exchange rate at the local bank it came out to $257. It also came with all the chokes, a sling, and more than 2 cases of ammo.  :IBCOOL:
