Maybe it was his Grandpa's gun???


I was at a farm auction several years ago where a Marlin model 60 22LR rifle was auctioned off...(At the time you could buy a brand new one for $60)...there were 2 young men bidding on that rifle...after much spirited bidding it sold for $750...the auctioneer was vey happy but flabbergasted...I went up to the young man that bought the rifle and asked him what was so special about that rifle that he paid that kind of price for it and he said: "It was my Grandpa's rifle"
