The rest of the story on acquisitions

I posted a little blurb in one of my posts about pawn shoppin the other day. Mentioned I got a Bushnell Trophy and a set of new RCBS carbide dies. Guys.. I have been pawn shoppin all summer and can tell you..there are some bargains to be had out there!!~ With the economy in the tank the way it is, people are gettin rid of stuff in Pawn Shops..but the pawn shops aren't selling like they want to. I have a friend who is a manager of a pawn shop (hardly ever get anything there though) and he said buyin is easy..selling sucks. I said in the other post I got a new set of 45 Colt dies for 15 bucks..carbide too..but I got 4 sets of new carbides all for 15 each..the others I will sell as I already have them...and it pays for my addictions..you know..all that reloading stuff. I also got an older Weaver 3x9 in exc condition for an even 20 bucks..I will more than double that price when i sell it and an older Redfield 4x scope..one chipped edge of the objective lens but 20 bucks also.. I'll put it on a rifle I keep around for a camp gun..in case somebodies gun breaks down.. It's an old Rem 721 in 270. Ugly but still shoots. No I ain't makin a living at it but it is still fun. And to top it off..I've been lookin for a good 22 semi auto handgun...and don't want a Ruger or Browning.. Shooting the High Standard makes me nervous as it is in really good condition and with the box and papers..more of a collectible than a shooter...so I'm gonna sell it. A guy I hunt with some went back to Ohio and came up with a S&W 41 with 2 barrels ..guy wanted 700 bucks and he called me..OF COURSE I WANT IT!! He bought it for 650 so I think I have my nice 22 semi auto.. Still a few guns around at yard sales but the prices are really rising around here. People are gettin nervous about the election coming up.. Most hate to even think it..but feel Nobama is gonna win again..what with the fix being in and election fraud and idiots thinkin Nobama wants to help 'em. Y'all ought to check out the pawn shops and see what might be available..and don't be afraid to offer a cheap price. They just might take it.. And if ya get a few things you don't want or need..sell and pay fer yer addiction. Or call me. I might just want it LOL!!
