Price $260 cash - non-negotiable. U-pick-up (I will load, but will not ship).

She will be at the Trackrock Hammer-in (above) and you can give her a try. First come/first served.

Folks, I "test drove" this baby. She is alrightmightyfine! Good managable size and not too mouthy. No hardies or other tools included.
