I want to get rid of my .25
Man I can`t understand that kind of thinking.

I never really want to get rid of any nice pieces like that. I may trade them off to get something else, but if I didn`t have to I would get the new piece and keep the old one.
Rifles and handguns are 2 different animals, and shotguns are a 3rd. I know alot of people that love 1 or the other and won`t consider get eather of the others. If you`ve never fired a .44 mag. befor I would recomand that you ask to fire the gun befor you trade for it. After you fire it you will know if you want to make the trade or not.
