I seriously considered selling off a couple of crack barrel single shot Stevens shotguns like that.

In San Antinio took an old H&R single shot 20 gauge that didn't work once, and took the family to Disney on Ice with the tickets I got for it.

Its a great opportunity to get rid of murder weapons too.
