Default Last of the one liners

I have my eye on an M&P in a pawn shop.It is serial#C4xxx and has a one line address.Four inch barrel,blued with diamond magna stocks.At least 95% but no box or extras I feel like the stocks would number to the gun.Is this one I should pick up?.

If the price is right i would every time.
Any one line address gun in 95% belongs in a collection
where it will be appreciated and enjoyed. It's a good find.

I'm not as turned off by the price as much as I am by the guy behind the counter.

Treasure has historically been guarded by dragons. Get past the big lizard and do what you have to to snag this chunk of value.

There cannot be many C-prefix one-liners. For a long time I didn't think there were any. This sounds like a really attractive Pre-10.

From what little conversation we had I do know they will take $450.00 plus tax.That gets me out the door for a little under $500.00.I did not know anything about these until I saw and handled it.I went home and got busy learning about them and I think I'll go back and face the Dragon.

That's not the best possible price you could get, but it's not grossly unfair either. I would see if they might go $400, and then take it at $450 if they won't budge.

Even though I'm still new at this I did not think it was a great price either.I disliked the attitude of the guy so much I left without haggling.

Sometimes it is necessary to "hold your nose" and deal with less than desirable individuals in order to acquire a worthwhile piece. Don't miss the opportunity because of the clerk.
