And, he fired three shots and he scored bull's eye with all three—a very tight pattern and he said, "Well, I am completely satisfied."
Mr. Liebeler. How much did you charge him for zeroing the rifle in?
Mr. Price. I didn't charge him anything. I charged him $1 for the use of the range and that was all. I just did that as a favor to Floyd to help him get his business in. I figured this was just another hunter who had come down to get his rifle zeroed in for deer season.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you have any other conversation with this fellow at that time?
Mr. Price. No, that was all. It was rather abrupt. He didn't talk too much, and I was kind of surprised that he didn't fire the rifle more. He just fired the three shots and he said, "Well, that's good enough," and he got up and left.
Mr. Liebeler. Did he leave the shell casings lying there at the range or did he take them with him?
Mr. Price. No, he took them with him—he picked them all up after the rifle was fired and took the shell casings along with him.
Mr. Liebeler. You had an opportunity to observe the rifle, did you not?
Mr. Price. Yes, I had it in my hand.
Mr. Liebeler. Would you be able to identify the rifle?
