You got me here, Cheap Thrills is a favourite game of mine.
My best buy this year must be a pre-WWII German combination gun (BBF) for $300; 16g over 8x57IR, Zeiss Zielvier in claw mounts.
My latest one is a scoped prewar Mannlicher Schoenauer 7x64 for $400.
My cheapest buy is a 16g J.P. Sauer hammer double for $10.
That is all recent, from this year. From old times I like to remember a retired police chief who offered me his Ferlach hammer shotgun for free if I do all the red tape and come to get it in his remote residence. I did and he not only gave me the gun but served me lunch and wine in his summer house in the hills.
With kind regards,
Jani
