If it doesn't hunt it isn't in the safe. I'd rather buy well used and taken care of than a pristine one for four times the price. It would end up looking like the well used gun by the time it left me. It would be nice if my wife can get out of it what I paid for it and have been able to enjoy it in the field.

One really glaring problem for me is the need for a very short length of pull, if it isn't short when I buy it(really helps keep the price down) I have to cut it anyway.

After the first shot the rest are just noise.
