Wow, entire collection for sale...

Post by IH424 »

I hope this is ok to post, it's not an auction and no prices are listed. The gun show he is referencing is 5 minutes from my house!

Why are you here telling us? You should be over at the bank arranging for a loan :)
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

With a list like that, let's say he could average $400 per gun, and if he could sell them all....

... might be the most popular guy at the gun show, and might walk out with $10 grand or more.
No words of wisdom come to mind at this time....

I saw a similar post on another forum but that guy was only interested in selling the whole thing not piecemeal. Wonder if this is the same collection? Either way, I think he would make his money back big time and cover the cost of a table at the gun show. Imagine all those Mosins on one table :beek:

Oh no Bill, it isn't warm down here. It was ten o'clock this morning before I was comfortable outside in my tee shirt. :devil2:

Just walk it off, take the pain for another five, maybe ten years, you can do it :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
