Good to know that, Bill- but for folks like me who buy good graded guns to keep and use, the "trade-up" scenario doesn't "Play in Peorai" The last gun deal I made with a dealer from the Magnolia State was with Thad Scott- I bought my 12 Eagle Grade live bird gun from him about 12-13 years ago, if memory serves. He was one of the good ones, like Bill Jaqua in Ohio-IMO anyway.
