when i say having a gun nut i mean a wad or funds to go and get the next addition , im in the process of putting a nut together but not close yet, i sell parts and deer slayers to fund my collection , i do dig into the pocket from time to time which is what im facing now
so i walk in and asked if he had any old vintage bi pods , he said he did in fact and started rooting around for it ,so im scanning the racks for stepped barrels while hes looking and damn if a rifle didnt stop me in my tracks , a M1a with match sights , im telling you my fun bits started to get all tingly and warm
so he said the bi pod was not there and he hollers at the owner and asks , he said it sold , so im eyeballing this M1a like my dog Lucy eyeballs me when im eating a Sams Club Ribeye
so i ask about the rifle against my better judgement and he pulls it down , he goes on and says it was a custom built special order SA match rifle from the 1970's , having NM barrel , trigger group , bolt ,carrier group , and sights , and the final touch a dummy selector switch , sweet stock with a scratch , $2100 , that is not a bad price for that rig , but a butload when you just started putting a nut together , wouldnt hurt so much if i had a grand already to dip into pocket for the remainder
