Well, remember how I said I picked up that MkII the other day because it might be a long time until I find the MkII that I really wanted? Yeah. It was a long time, alright. About 36 hours. Went to the gun show and some guy had one in the box for sale. :::facepalm::: After none-too-subtle urging from my friend (”C’mon, you know you want it. You just said that it was the exact one you were looking for and that who knew when youd find another?”) I went back to the guys table at the gun show just in time to see an acquaintance of mine scoop it out from under me.

Such is life. Gotta be philosophical about it…that gun will always be out there. Eventually Ill come across another one. Might cost more, but it’ll be there sooner or later.

In the meantime, I can console myself with the MkII I picked up the other day and not feel too bad about it.
