Not too many 20 year olds would even know what this is, much less instantly yank 19.95 out of their pocket and buy it when the pawn shop man named his price! With the handles, no less.

I asked him did he try to bargain the man down. He said, "No sir, I thought it best to give him the money as fast as I could." :mrgreen:

I've tried to give him a well balanced education, I must have done something right!:)

You guys think I should give him his money back for it?.......

Wow - I think I would just put it on my bookcase shelf with a couple other rare old molds...

Yep ... if it's worth the money at the price stated why beat the guy down even more ? The buyer did real good this time out .

I appreciate the offer, but I'm pretty sure he's planning on inheriting it one day. :mrgreen:

This is a fairly large establishment. I think sometimes they just have so much stuff that they don't want to take time to research each item to determine a value. The "used firearms accessories" department is a very small part of their operation.

The fact that he said No "sir", and the fact that he was thinking about you, tells us older generation guys(old farts) a lot about this young man and your influence in his upbringing. I vote to give him the money
