Both sold?

Hi, do you still have a 6.5 barrel for the Badger 2008/2013?

And yet you did...still more information to go in here; not that I have it.

I have had asthma my whole life, just like Teddy Roosevelt did. I have had more "asthma attacks" than I can remember, or want to. My heart goes out to that family, and I wish I had had breath enough for us both. Principals office, what a stupid place to keep anything necessary for life.
