Had a good show and there was a lot of components to buy, a lot of powder, primers and bullets, plus bags of brass. Took one gun, a restored Boys Model Take Down Winchester M-60 rifle. I had hauled it to 4 shows, not even a nibble. So I did a full restoration including the old Win steam rust blue, stock redone in Win red stain and lacquer, it looked as new, sold/traded the little gun in 15 minutes to an older fellow that had one growing up and wanted this one as a present for his great grandson.
