No, yeah, the 32.
I didn't need it.
You actually mentioned Waldo in Cabela's, and I happened to show up one day and was talking to him and saying hi and looked in the case, and they had a Ruger Alaskan in .454 Casull for probably –
He was used, so it was probably $500 less than what I paid for mine.
And we were all set to do the paperwork, and he ended up talking to the manager, and the manager was like, no, we don't ship to Massachusetts, which makes sense because the Massachusetts handgun roster is extremely difficult to navigate on what's actually allowed to go into the state, and they just didn't want to spend the shipping and get the gun out.
out of the case only to have it come back because the gun shop refused to transfer it.
So, but I'm just saying that sometimes the ones that get away, come back.
Another, another, another one of the ones that got away since you talked about a bunch of rifles.
So I, I could, I could cheat too, was I was at a small gun shop in Vermont.
It was when we were up at camp and,
And, like, I just, I was not prepared to make a large purchase.
And they had, it had to have been a Tula.
I didn't know how to decipher the markings back then.
But they had a 1908 Mosin-Nagant.
It was a Russian.
And I was just like, oh.
I really kind of want this.
I didn't remember what the, what the receiver, what the, what the year model was, but, uh, but it was an 80, it was an 1891.
It was the first 1891 I'd ever handled.
And, uh, and then it was, it wasn't even a year later.
