The only reason I ask, is because I hear people on here talking highly about there 250's and I just ordered the BH QD II, suppose to be here today or tomorrow, I could run it up to the store return it and snag this.

Even if you only use it as a backup, that whole package is a steal.

If it is as advertised, it is a very good deal! The extra coil alone is worth almost half of that.

Thanks everyone for the quick replies! Contacted the gentlemen selling it, and am going to pick it up today! I did some research on the coil and jerry you are right! The man explained that he got it as a christmas present , took it out a few times and never found anything so its just been sitting around collecting dust. One mans loss is another gained!
