Quoted: Sweet rifles. Man I am trying to find one.

Well, today I'm killing time in another county, see a gun shop and decide to pull in and hack around. I had looked at the pistols and was kind of in the back of the store when I noticed the tale-tell steamed elm stocks that are the trademark of the FEG's.
It was covered in dust and looked like it had some rust on the cleaning rod, but it was marked $349.00 with no box, no bayonet, and only one mag. It seemed in very good working order and all the numbers matched.
I don't think the guy knew what he had. These things sell at over a grand easy. Now this one didn't have all the accessories and box that make it a true collectable, but I now have an underfolding FEG I can shoot, and leave the other one with box and accessories pristine.
The kicker is, when I got it home and cleaned it up, there was no rust and the gun was in 95% + shape. Took it to the range and fired about 150 rounds through it without a malfunction, and the gun is accurate. I believe I could sell it in a heart beat for around $750.00. Of course, I won't...
You always hear about the guy who found a deal, and that guy was never me, until today.
Perhaps I should go buy a lottery ticket...
Here are the twins.
