We had a nice trip to Knob Creek Ky for the machinegun shoot. It was nice to see Brian Dick and his lovely wife. They had the finest Lees in the place. One fellow had $400 Springfield Sporters Indian No.4 Mk1(T) with forestock screw and no mount or telescopic sight for the modest markup to $1300. Apparently he is an avid follower of the auction sites. I wonder if he sells it to himself periodically to drive up the price.

That rifle has been around for about a year. The owner is in la la land thinking it is worth that because it has intact volley sights! All that is going to happen is over time it will get table scarred. Apparently his ego is speaking--I have it and you don't--Ya Ya Na Na! There are alot of characters who show stuff and have no intention of selling it--just teasing.
Another sad part of the story is that some other person will walk up see the price and go home and get his and up his price and then like we see with the internet auctions--everyone talks themselves into higher prices and then complain because people don't rush to buy. It is a pity you can't buy common sense--there is a shortage.
