But if it WAS one of old Elmer's guns, why don't they advertise it as such? Without the proof, how can it be worth that? Even though many here have said the Cabela's people are knowledgeable, that has not been my experience, or at least I haven't spoken to those particular stores. I would hate to be the one owning this "treasure" when the music stopped, and no chairs were left!

After my bitter experience with the Raick Erigis I started a thread about several weeks ago, I'm getting out of this for a while--it's too dangerous. To paraphrase Mencken, the big dealers have decided that no one ever went broke underestimating the gullibility of the prospective double gun buyer. They've cynically decided to make hay while the sun shines. After my refund check clears, I'll have more to say about the Raick--pronounced (quite accurately) --"Wreck." I trust NONE of these people--they either know nothing, or are charlatans of the first order!
