When my friend and mentor, Harry Creighton, was a young man during the depression he used to enjoy testing his marksmanship skills by shooting rats at the local dump. His weapon of choice was a Model 75 Winchester topped with a Unertl Small Game scope.

One day he was the subject of attention of a small boy. After he had dispatched several rats in a row, the boy asked, "Mister, is that thing on top of the gun what makes it shoot so good." Harry admitted that it was. "How much does it cost?" the boy asked. Harry replied, "$35.00".

The boy thought for while and finally said, "You know, at that price, I think I could afford to miss a few."

That pretty well describes my feeling toward Herr Miedler's take down pin.
