SOLD T/C round ball twist .50 cal barrel

[sqqy14]

I bought this NOS barrel a number of years ago. It is a Pennsylvania Hunter .50 cal 28", 15/16"
1:66" rate of twist. I trimmed the under rib so it will drop into a Thompson Center Hawken stock.
It's in great shape and the bore is excellent. Shipping costs are killing everyone so I'm offering it for
$170 shipped.

SOLD

PM me where to send the funds.

Whoa, I've got another offer. Let me see who was first.
bubba.50 so sorry I got a PM that beat you by one minute.

 

[bubba.50]

No big deal. Just one more reason there should be some variation of the "I'll take it" rule here.

 

[sqqy14]

It caught me off guard. I want to be fair too.

I'm not being negative to you but, on most forums you post "I'll take it" or some such THEN go to PM. IMHO it should be that way here too.

The way I read the rules for this forum is " All offers to be made by PM"

Show me that 'rule' ANYWHERE. It's not even a 'suggestion' much less a 'rule'. A response on the ad itself THEN a PM is the way you avoid misunderstandings.

Well old buddy, there is a post titled Classified rules, please read all. I'm trying to follow the posted rules. If I had just posted "Taken" instead of taking the time to write a PM, I would have beat you to it by 5 minutes instead of 1. Sometimes you get the bear, sometimes the bear gets you.

I have no problem with you getting the barrel. I've lost out on better deals & likely will again. I have a problem with your imaginary 'rule'. I've read the entire sections by Meriwether, Loyalist Dave and Zonie and there's nothing that even suggests what you claim, much less state it outright. Peace out & enjoy your barrel.

I was only a few minutes behind your ‘sold’ post and didn’t bother to post anything. One of those snooze you lose moments. Guess in this case the PM wins.
