Title: What is that?!
Post by: majorKAP on March 27, 2006, 06:34:10 PM

I wandered in just to look around a bit.  "What is that?", I asked Big John, the gunshop guy, as I pointed to the little gun on the mirrored shelf of his upper level stuff cabinet.

He told me that it was a Roar Ba Ugh....and that is the way he said it. Ugh....as if he was disgusted to even utter the word. He didn't know much about it.

He went on to explain that one of his customers, a frequent buy it, trade it in, buy something else kinda guy brought it in a few days earlier.  Curious little thing, I surmised, but costly.

Later that night, at home, I did a Google and found you guys.  After reading a while, I made a decision, impulsive perhaps, to buy it if it was still there Monday.  And so it was, and so I did.

This little fella, #R1051, is purportedly unfired and NIB.  I believe it to be true.  All the stuff is with it, including the registation card.  Maria, at the factory, verified that it has not been registered with them.  Big John took a copy of my FFL and 7 bills.  I know from this forum that I did okay.  Heck, I paid that much for my LWS 32 (serial #JENKINS 1) 15 years ago.

Now, I think I'll browse around for leather.
