Yard sales etc
PC I always ask..This one yesterday was a moving sale and they are almost always pretty good.
I looked at the guns today and did acquire a nice little single shot Iver Johnson 410 for 30 bucks and a Stevens lever action rifle..M-430 I think..It is in 30 Remington. But the price was pretty good(250)...and I have about 6 boxes of 30 Rem ammo. It is actually just an upgraded 425 Lever action with checkered wood. They didn't make many of the darn things So I may be able to sell it and make a bit of profit. Not too much of a lever gun fan. I'll probably use the profit to build the 94 action..if I can find someone to bore and rifle it. Guy had an old 1100 probably first year as it still had a steel gas ring rather than the rubber one. But since I have many of them I passed on it as it was a plain bbl and full choke. Price was 250 on it too.Got some other little odds and ends but nothing earth shattering. Stopped at another yard sale today just as they were closing down and did get an old(late 70's) 9.9 horse Yohnson Outboard motor. In good condition with what feels to be good compression. No salt use here ya know.30 bucks.. Now I am gonna have to go through it and clean carb new water pump and general tune. Actually got it to start with a shot of ether. When I moved here I gave a friend back east my little john boat and late 70's 7 1/2 Yohnson. He has lots of fun with it. Now I'll have to find a small john boat
