    Date for a No Dash Model 60?

    Crab Bait and Lobster Picnic... Crustacean Combo Anyway, I appreciate it. Guy I bought it from said it's 10 years old (that's when he bought it, and assumed it was new I guess). I knew better than that. Still had to start negotiating at Gunbroker prices... darned internet. I'd post a...
