Gun show finds today?
« on: March 08, 2003, 08:21:26 AM »
I came across another Hakim today($295) I just couldn't pass it up, then a 1942 M38 husqvarna turned down bolt very good condition rearsenaled once, matching numbers reciever/bolt/ trigger housing $225 I haggled him down to $215. I seen another M1895 7MM marked $130 but I had to hold myself back two maybe three is tough to sneak by the misses. I have never seen so many military guns at one show it was awesome, a very big show this year.  I wish they had a show every month in the winter time a sure cure for cabin fever.                      BigBill

I hated passing up that 7MM it just haunts me like a lost dog??   I'm not sure if I can sleep tonight??

Went down to the local pawn shop today, they had a real nice M1 Garand for $475.  Nice stock with a like new bore.  Had to take it home, always wanted one, most of them at the gun shows bring over $700.
First liar doesn't stand a chance!

Lots of garands at the show today very expensive($750 to $1200) tables full of them and the johnsons were $3,500 each too.  But I have seen garands for $399 too on the net but who knows the condition of them. I like the German G43's too awesome 8MM semi too. My problem is I like them all not just one??                   BigBill
