As my son has large hands I put a set of factory combats on the 66-2 when I gave it to him.
I believe you did well on the price and by your neighbor. Now-a-days some people aren’t satisfied with a great find unless they hose someone to get it.
Three weeks ago the receptionist at my doctor’s office offered me a few handguns owned by her late father. A LGS low-balled her on one of them and had no interest in the others. I gave her $200.00 for a rag nasty Glock 20. I took it 2-3 miles down the road and sold it to a family friend for $200.00. By the time he refinishs the slide and buys a few more mags he will have invested what it is worth. The LGS had offered her $100.00 for it.
