Cool gun
My first .22 was a Winchester Model 270 pump-action, acquired for the princely sum of $25 from the one-and-only local pawn shop (with a parent's signature, of course).
Unfortunately, the parts(s) connecting the handle to the action broke, and the one-and-only local gunsmith told me it couldn't be fixed.
In retrospect, I think the old man probably took advantage of me, as he only gave me $10 for it.
My guess is, he probably did fix it, then sold it for more.
The worst part, though, isn't that.
My other guess is, he probably needed the money, and that thought completely overrules any others, at least in my mind.
