8. Sounds like more of a "collector" type of gun

You may have better luck at local Gun Shows for something like that and it may take a few years to find one. (But I can guarantee you it won't be $40 when you find it.)

But you'll meet a lot of interesting people along the way.

For years I wanted a Spanish American War vintage 1896 Krag Jorgensen Carbine for my collection.

Took me 3 years to find a decent one at a local Gun Show, but I met a lot of characters along the way and learned a ton about the rifle along the way.

Good luck.
