Because I did to raise pennies for other stuff just before Christmas, regretted it the second the buyer p-m'd me to thank me upon said pistol's safe arrival with him, been agonising with separation anxiety ever since, so have just been out and bought another for £20 more than I sold mine for (after post). Here then endeth my cursory tale, the moral of which is not so much think before you buy, but think before you sell !!!
