Picked it up yesterday afternoon. Ended up paying $400 out the door - sales tax, background check fee, the whole works. Will shoot it tomorrow, but I'm really pleased with the buy. One correction to the description I posted: It has a coin finished receiver, not a blued one.

Talking to the dealer, he noted that the market for sporting guns is virtually dead. All the money is going into semi-automatic pistols and rifles and reloading components, particularly primers. He said he'd have gotten at least another $100 for the Miroku a year ago. May be a good time to make a low-ball offer on one of those low to medium priced sporters, shotguns or revolvers you've had your eye on.
