Yeah, they wouldn't take a deposit.

But I called again today, and this time got a "tentative" price. Tentative in that the shop researched the rifle for the owner, and suggested a price of $350. Now it's up to the owner to agree to that or not. And I'm sure the shop's consignment fee isn't included. But at least I got some kind of number!

I'm still first in line, so if the actual tag price is decent enough, I'm going for it. I'll have to sell the shop my extra Swiss K31, then turn around and buy the Puma. No trade-ins on consignments. But this place is a milsurp shop and they price K31's around $900. I only paid $250 for it, I think. So I should be OK.

I figured it would be $600 out the door, but looks like it will be much lower then what I thought.

Oh yeah! Soon as it's in my sweaty hands I'll be ordering brass and dies! Already have bullets cast for it, primers and powder.

OK, finally got a call from the gun shop. The owner of all these rifles brought in for consignment finally put prices on several of them, and took the rest home. This Puma Short Rifle is one he took home. Bummer.

But our Cabela's has a 16" Rossi .357 carbine in like new condition, so I'm going to try to get that one now. But I'm going to that other shop first to see what he left and what the prices are.

Yeah, but the 16" .357 Rossi R92 that was at Cabela's lives at MY house now! It's in excellent condition, pretty sure it's unfired, or used very, very little. Looks like it just came out of the box.

Can't post pics here anymore. I don't know how to shrink my phone photos down to postage stamp size.

One door closes, another opens. Mazeltov!

As far as photo compression, go shopping for an app!
