The gun was sold as a .357 -9mm convertible in '72
Being able to work for a gun overtime and not coughing up the cash on the spot is worth something, so I wouldn't feel too hosed....but I wouldn't be too nice when it comes to "billing" him for your plumbing work. Definitely wouldn't be giving him the "friend price" on anything, unless you treat your friends that same way he does.
One thing I have learned is that when you pay something over time you usually don't get the best price.
Very true. I have a .300 Wby Weatherby Vanguard that I worked off rather than paying for. I don't regret it at all, as I needed (wanted) a rifle but didn't have the cash to do so, nor would I have the cash in the near future. It is much easier for me to come up with extra time and sweat than it is hard cash....especially being in school and everything. Though, I will say, the fella I'm working for is a little bit more reasonable on prices.
