Who'd-a-thunk it. Gun show in Longview TX, this walks in:   FN Browning High-Power, Medallion Grade, 1967, 7mm Rem Mag. Mint condition, long extractor, absolutely no trace of salt wood. Had to own it. Also:  Colt Official Police .38 Special, 1957 gun, mint/unfired in box with paperwork. This has been an expensive show for me!
