They are worth way more than anybody ever dreamed they would be.

So it is worth a bunch of money, wtf?


The one I lost I think we picked up in a pawn shop for about $60 in 1992.

Last ones I saw, a guy had the standard blue and plastic wood and the black synthetic stainless looking one. I think he was asking $800 for the set.

That was a gun show so take that fwiw...

You can expect to spend 1K if you want the infamous "Nylon 66 Black Diamond" model.

some brand of 22 rifle. It is at the bottom of Bayou De Glaise and will forever stay there.

My Pow Pow gave the gun to me and was not happy when my cousin flipped us out of the boat. We never did find it.

Is that different then any other black synthetic/feaux stainless ones?

Might not have been a bad deal I passed on at the gun show a couple of years ago. Seemed fricking steep at the time...

Another fine gun that I wish someone would have bought a closet full and left to me.

Power poling has taken off here lately.

I never had a first gun. All my dads guns were available for me to use. No need in me having my own. Crack barrel 410 was probably the first I used plenty.

It has some funky looking faux wood grain and those diamonds on it like the pic. Not the same color as that one though. It has a blue tint to the woodgrain.

It is just sitting in the garage covered in mud right now

I guess I should go clean that mother fricker ASAP

That's the standard model that most people have/had and just about all I've seen for sale these days if you find them. It's still worth a lot more than you paid... Couple hundred maybe depending on condition.

Buy it now for $300
