Maybe lightning will strike twice and one of us can have one so inexpensively.

you can get the 12 gauge guns for very reasonable prices. The 16's and 20s' are a completely different story. With the recoiling barrel, they remind me of field artillery! But they are beauties, even older ancient ones...
