Sometimes it's great to pick up the clutter.
Today was like that.
Found a set of Colt grips 15 bucks and a presentation case for 25.
Second shop 2 more cases 100 bucks
And a bunch of 257 Robert's and 280 remington brass and ammo for 25 bucks......that was crazy good.
Oh and some prop rods.

This was definitely an Enzo economics day
Basically they pay you to take the stuff away.

Nice Haul. I bet there is a mark up on those grips now

Simply amazing what you find, Congrats on the score.

Nice scrounging!!

Actually they fit well on the 32-20 target gun
So they need to be tried.

They certainly look nice

Yeah well now I have to find a 257 Robert's so there is that....lol

I think I already had some ammo for one already too.

I thought you had a 257! I’ll send you mine to play with. It just gathers dust since I got the 25-35.

32-20 looks good. I’ve been wondering if it managed to stay with you being a Colt and all

Get a Bob! They are a great cartridge. Sadly mine gathers dust too from all the single shots we’ve been shooting mine is a Remington 722.

That doesn’t surprise me a bit

.257 in a pistol or a rifle is on your radar?

Awesome haul brother. Sure wish you were closer so we could go scrounging together

Before meeting you all that stuff would have been left there.
Seriously you taught me the art of just picking up free money.
I'm grateful to you.
IIRC.....It was a Tyler T grip you got for 5 bucks.
At the time I think you said they went for 40.
It clicked in.....I became a flipper.

It is now.....lol
Ammo is ridiculously expensive so if I have enough laying around that becomes irrelevant.

I also reload and have scrounged enough components for me, my kids, and probably my grandkids.
They'll be able to shoot free.....without worry or just having a walking stick.

I might have helped but the natural talent was always there

So you are asking us to enable, got it

So you’re looking for an 257…. Hmmmmmm

Not actively looking
But now if I see one of those 722's
I'd be more inclined to think well I already can shoot it for free.
