Beautiful WIN-13. I would love to have one but they always seem just out of my reach.

WIN-13s
When the war ended, WRA had several hundred left over. They used them for retirement presentations, sales contest prizes, customer favors. When they shut down the museum, they still had some and allowed a few connected dealers to buy them at a very low price. The few that were left after that were quietly auctioned off with no publicity. I bought one at the Stratford Gun Show in 1977 for $420, I was one of the "fish" who came along after it was over. They all snickered that I paid double their cost. I didn't care.
