Linda and I were at Pantel's picking up her new Astra Police from Gunbroker and were getting ready to leave when the owner said, 'Hey Tinker, look at this- it's on consignment."  He then handed me a Taurus 608, mint with a 6" compensated barrel- for $300! MSRP on these is $729 and the best price I've seen one at new is $599. Everything was in order and Linda pronounced the DA trigger to be 'Excellent' and the single-action is super-crisp. 'Are we doing more paperwork?' asked Linda. 'Yes, Goddammit." I am now forbidden to enter a gun store for a month. |

I was afraid you were gonna say you accidentally sat on some fly paper fresh out of the shower.
Congrats on the score!

Am glad to see other's sense of humor come out to play. On a bird hunting webforum I was voted in the top 5 of of funny guys, some years ago. A near decade on a cutting edge tacticool forum, mostly got me berated any time I broke funny. No sense of humor from those guys.

Accuracy is alright- 25 yards, single-action, standing unsupported.  |
