Well not a yard sale

Went to an estate auction yesterday. It got cold yesterday morning. Left home ant 28 degrees and when we got to the auction it was 4 above. And the same when we got home. bought a gun...and I am almost ashamed to say...it is a gag "Browning" gag. Fabs please don't be too hard on me please!! The price was right...I had my eyes closed...my wife raised my hand...I was on drugs for a cold. I'm innocent..I really am. It wasn't my fault(picture Belushi laying on the ground with Carrie Fisher pointing a gun at him in the tunnel on that movie Blues Brothers) It was a BT-99 Combo Trap gun in the case etc. Not great condition but ok for the price of 400 bucks. Two bbls ya see. Bought a bunch of other things too. Got 9000 CCI 209 primers for 90 bucks. Also got another reloader. A hornady 366 12 ga. I was asleep when my wife bought it for me...honest..and she paid waaayyy too much at 15 dollars. Was in Wally World the other day and walked by the Sporting Goods counters and holy cow..Win AA and Rem STS shells were 6.99 a box. So I bought some(6 cases) at the auction for 4.50 a box. Now I don't have to reload for the 12 ga Got lots of other stuff too but they were lots of littles. Guy called today and asked if I wanted the manual and a lot of parts for the loader. He bought them in a bucket of little things. Gave me a Mec 600 too. but I think it is 16 ga. Some days ya just hold yer mouth right ya know??

Now on a negative and sad note my wife bought a bunch(7) of quilts(like she needs 'em) for a hundred bucks and spent some of my hard earned(?) money on little stuff that she really didn't need. I'm gonna stop takin her to auctions and yard sales. She just wastes money on useless junk!!
