You have to work at finding things. I alsways ask at yard sales especially when it is the elderly. They quite often want to dispose of guns and really don't know how. So I can be the disposee or er or whatever
I also finally talked the guy down on the custom 35 Whelen. Made on an Argentine Mauser by a fellow named Goens from Montana. Wood is fairly plain...but very nicely done. If I keep it I have ammo for it too....but the guy gave me 175 rounds of new and once fired brass
