oh hold on , this was pre sale inspection pic's that a agent sneaked online no camera's where supposed to be allowed ( UN Rules)

i did buy some , but only a few and most where passed in offers as many lots where 1-10 pallet loads , i aint in that end of the game , happy with the scraps

and i'll offer a dealer a double up on his buy for a the few i want , and a few say ok as it saves em shipping ..

i wont say how many i bought but no where near a pallet all will fit the 2'x2' x6' steel chests i have just for such things , to comply with all the rules etc

i will say i bought some nice Mosin's and Mausers Chi Com and Chang Khi Shek (sp?) and Siamese, could not afford the tibetan ones $900 a pop buying lots of 20 at a time .. too rich for me eh ..

a lot of SKS's went off the day after ( they ran it by period i did not buy any semi's or auto's , cant .. ) the folks in canada got a heap marstar , so i know they wholesale to others in the US

$35,900 was the winning bid for New never issued SKS's 250 mixed Chicom Yogo and romanian , sorted buy quality ..

there where 4 and a bit pallets n of new

16 of good

29 of average

cheapys and parts went for $15-20 K a pallet

i dont have a trade permit for hand guns ( cant afford the insurance and all the hooplah ) so could not partake in that part of the auction but they publish a results for the catalouge , i'll have that in the next month or so

bit one thing for sure i'll say as i'll be flogging it to the USA is a 30-06 belt loader ( hand cranked )

wont even come here , gent from arizona will get it to help repay a kindness and i know he wont say no to this

It is sad to see that pallet of old rifles in that condition.

Picked up an AR15 in .223 yesterday from my LGS. Got it on a trade deal I worked out with the gunsmith there for one of my RC helicopters. The gun comes with a muzzel break, connection points for a sling, quad rail, carry handle with picatinny rail on top, laser, a 6 x 30 scope, iron sights, dust cover, slide assist, adjustable stock, one 20 round mag and two 30 round mags. Shoots great. Plan to get a .22 LR conversion kit for it as well so I can shoot it more often.

I purchased a Heritage .22mag/.22lr revolver yesterday also with a box of CCI .22 MAG High Velocity ammo. The gun is real accurate.

I put a Ruger 22-45 Lite on layaway.
I purchased my wife a Pink Laminated Ruger 10/22 with Nikon Scope for her birthday.

tomorrow a Gun Show, I'll be looking for a 22-45 Lite muzzel brake.

Does stocking up on a few bottles of "a favorite adult beverage" count for use at deer camp after the days hunt is over?

If so, then a bottle of Makers Mark and a bottle of Captain Morgan, were purchased to go up to camp.

good choice on the Maker's mark, my personal favorite!

Soundguy, too true on shotgun reloading (except .410 and 28g), you don't really save anything anymore on most target shells. Rem gun clubs are only $60/case, costs every bit of that to reload. Plus you're getting a new hull when you buy shells.

only reason I still do it is because I love to reload but that's it.

florescent green earplugs from wall mart. They got the three rings of protection ya know, but I swear when I pulled one out of my ear it created a suction like a plunger so I gotta be careful not to plunge all the crap out of my brain, I need some of that crap.

Bought a Ruger Super Blackhawk SA in .44 Rem Mag, with the ten and a half inch bull barrel. Blued with Rosewood grips. My new whitetail hunting tool. I wasn't sure about the long barrel, but I got a really good deal on it. It should really reach out there and touch something.
