Guns have come and gone, some I don't remember, some I'd sooner forget. Don't you wish you had passed on all those thousand dollar bargins? How about those two thousand dollar, "just as good as" specials.
Or!
The ones that were way more, that had silly sounding names.
If like me, you'd have a good down payment by now on a very much pre-enjoyed Boss&Co gun - no need for a large safe - and no need to keep on looking.
You coulda had a Boss by now matey!

I could still have one... but I'd rather have 20 'other' brand guns than one Boss.

Numbers have never excited me, I'm trying to pare-down my meager cabinet as we speak.

I'm an admirer of American cookie cutter and furrin "in the manner of." Or one from column A etc. How many ways can you say Bang! Where's the magic in a Boss when you can own the 3-D history of skeet, a Pyrennean copy or two, and a wonderful Charlin from the wonderful culture that brought you that wonderful Duck Confit not to mention Ortolan? Ain't it wonderful? Bet you're gaggin now!

Why have one lovely girl when you can have two dozen? It is not fair to those other guns to only own one of them. And to be honest I never cared that much for the Boss guns that I have held. Perfectly made to be sure, but not special in any way to me. Several other Britsh guns would be ahead of any Boss on a list of guns that I might be willing to own. I would rather have guns with flaws and warts like I have than one gun that I will always look out of place when I am holding it or shooting.

I have to admit a Boss would look good proping up that pine tree.

It would look even better propped against side mirror of a Bentley. Chauffer's side of course, wouldn't want to run over that thing!
