I went into a local gunshop today, to sorta see if a certain mint, unfired Browning commerative 92 was still there, and it was. I had seem it a few weeks ago and figured it was probably sold by now, but it wasn't. The price was $699.00 plus tax. And the action was butter smooth, and I would probably have put it on layaway but I got distracted by an old friend that I hadn't seen in years and ended up leaving without putting any money down on it, figuring if it had hung around that long I still had a little time to think about it.
Now, as luck would have it, I decided to stop at this little gunshop, owned by a friend of mine, on the way home a drink a coke and shoot the bull. And as soon as I come in the door I am blindsided by a new arival in his shop. It was a High Grade Browning 1886 Carbine, on consignment. Of course my friend knew I would probaby have to have it, and the trap worked.
Of course if I had of already put money down on the 92, I could been saved but as it was, I was helpless to resist, as I was fresh out of 45/70 leveractions, and was wanting a Browning 1886 without the new safety and rebounding hammer stuff. I ended up promising to give him $1200.00 for it out the door, and made me take it home without paying a penny down, and the trap slammed shut.
Here it is.[im

) Thanks OK, we are happy for 'ya. I remember when I used to get excited at a new levergun but nothing was as exciting as that '94 Canadian Centennial my Dad gave me in '68 when I was 14. 
Very Nice!
However I will say that that is some beautiful bait!
