I came real close to winning one of those earlier this year then someone decided they wanted it a lot more than I did...some people! I wished they would shop around a bit before bidding the whole idea is not to beat me but actually get a good deal!

Buddy, I've never understood that. Once a guy places a bid on a rifle it seems to go sorta nuts. Very often the rifle goes for 10% to even 50% more than an average selling price from a good dealer. Its almost like a bid for $5 more is a personal challenge.
"He's not gonna get away with that! I'll bump it $50.00. That'll show 'em".

Weird how that works. Sometimes I'm glad I have a wife with folded arms and one arched eyebrow standing behind me, watching and waiting with a hidden darning egg!

My 1911
Don't mean to hijack here. I just thought I'd post my 1911. Its not a really nice one. But its got a great bore and shoots great. Made in 1918. MJ11 your 96/11 is very nice.
