I picked up one of these from a central Montana farmer years ago, in farm condition at farm prices. Might be my favorite gun!

What exactly is your definition of "farm condition"? Not to put words in your mouth but, it sounds derogatory. Hope I'm wrong.

Yikes, Stanton….a bit of a thin skinned response since you are proud of being a farmer, eh?! Grouse Guy’s statement doesn’t seem the least bit derogatory or condescending towards farmers from my viewpoint. I think his point was the gun was well used….

Obviously you don't know either ............

Beautiful gun!

To clarify for Stan, I actually borrowed the phrase from the farmer himself. When we met at a remote road junction for the transaction he walked the gun over to my truck with a slight grin on his face saying "She's in farm condition at farm prices!" I liked the man and the gun straight away. It seems some are always looking for offense....

Stanleys had a bad attitude since his man Jimmy Carter screwed up the price of peAnuts and they stopped making Billy Beer.

You know how them Farmers are.....

Probably bought it with his government subsidized farm loan mOney

Did Stan fall in love with that Billy beer??

Thanks for your reply, GG. I hope it serves you well, but I'm still left wondering what that "farm condition" means. I've heard it used so many times before, and it's always been so vague. However, I DO understand what "farm prices" means.

Best wishes to you, SRH

Stan:

In this case "farm condition" included significant blue wear at the carry points, some brown freckling on the receiver where rust was started then halted before pitting, butt with shallow scratches, dents and flaking finish, checkering well worn and where remaining full of grime (tractor grease and wheat chaff?).
On disassembly I would posit the internals had never been accessed or lubed since the factory. Basically it looked like it had killed a lot of everything with feathers on his humble farm since the 40's. And I found it still could even before I got home to pull it down.
I could see the homeplace in the distance, where he'd assembled about two dozen dull tractors, seeders, swathers, hoppers and a few combines that might still roll on the upwind side, as is the local practice when you've never had barn space for it all. He said his kids weren't interested in farming or hunting, especially during the dry years.

Haha

Bob: Put up your fine M21 20ga DT FOR SALE again. I promise to not derail it!

All good.
Can you post a picture of yours?

Well, I apologize for bringing it up. I didn't mean to wreck the thread. And I don't talk politics. I just like SXS shotguns.

You're a class act Jimmy.

By the way, your gun is really nice. I have one similar in a 12 gauge. I put a leather pad on it and it turned out to be a nice gun. Take care.

And equally so, Billy's brother Jimmy was an embarrassment to right thinking Georgians. A Christian man, from what I've heard, but terribly inept and mis-guided. I rank him with Obama.

👍

Me too, Bob. No more Billy Bob comments from me, either. 🤐

Stanton;
But what about your fondness for Billy and Billy Beer?

Knowing who you take your cues from, and that you parrot everything he says and does, shadowing him like a little puppy, that question is par for the course.

I'm not a beer drinker of any brand, and never had any use for Jimmy's brother. Was my statement above, where I said "equally so", worded too complex for you, buzz (li'l jOe)?

I was just funning and joking with you Stan, but it’s obvious you are a mean SOB/wolf in sheep’s clothing with your ‘all my best SRH’ bullshit and your self important need to respond to practically every thread on this forum as evidenced by your total post count.

Nice hat Buzz

i'm guessing the guy in the white gmc, drove straight home to change his drawers....
