Fellows,

Your replys have been very moving! I say this from the bottom of my heart. I mean it when I say I have agnoized over this decision for quite sometime. You fellows are my sounding board and I really appreciate your wisdom. My friend went in for open heart surgery today (26 July 2004) and I will be visiting him some this week. Nedless to say I will not be speaking about the gun unless he brings it up. I have decided that when he does I will offer him what it is worth. Then it will be up to him to either accept the price or gently know that he will not take any more money than he has asked for. For what it is worth, it is stainless (but subdued) and custom wood. It is the Custom Safari Express.

Again thanks to all
Trex
