Makes me think about all the carbines in all the various makers and parts combinations we had on hand here back about mid '70s. Who would have guessed a $175CDN carbine would ever be worth anything more...?

I hear you Jim.
I'm thinking the Humpers will be gearing up for 24-7-365 production.
I messaged the seller telling him that sale should be a great start to his weekend.
His words- " I just looked at it, it's just a flip sight.... have people gone crazy? "
I remember maybe 10 years ago buying a WRA and Inland that were correct except the previous owner had their trigger housing assemblies swapped around backward. He wanted $400 for the pair. When he dug out the 2 C tip slings I tried to give him $500 which he would NOT take. As I packed them up he was still pulling magazines, pouches and 4 or 5 boxes of ammo saying they went with them. We had met at his friends house where he had stored them which was sorta closer for me. I tried to leave the extra $100 with him but he didn't want to get in the middle of it. I managed to leave that extra $100 with the friends Wife who had been hauling coffee back and forth to us while I was there. I have a picture of that haul laid on the table when I got home. IIRC there were about 12- 15rd mags and 3- 30rd hardbacks along with some J marked 30's. Felt guilty about that deal but he was grinning as I left like he'd sold me a car that a rod would be knocking on before I hit the highway. What could I do ? I seen him again maybe 5 years later when I was picking up a Colt and Rem Rand from one of the other guys from our gun buying group. He asked about them with that same 'Gotcha Grin'.
I will admit I've been after a real S'G' flip so long that I'd 'Go Crazy' to buy it and put a end to it. Don't care what anyone would say about it either.
Safe Weekend

I had a couple bids in there but bailed out when it went over 275. I need a rough looking Rockola flip but not for $432.
