Omg

Dan I used to do that stuff when I was back east..Made out like a bandit many many times. Bought a storage unit once for 30 bucks..Mostly junk but there was a 5 gallon water jug in there with more than 800 bucks when the bank got done counting.. They did charge me 10 bucks to count and sort it though. My daughter has made out great buying those darn things..But there is a lot of junk. Most of 'em I just broke even or made a little bit . Here in Wy. they take all the stuff out and sell it individually.which is a crock.. In most states the stuff belongs to the original owner till it is sold all at one time..... BUT there is good news for me too. Bought another neat rifle today..A Weatherby(yeah I know) Mark V in that great caliber 257 Weatherby mag..with a Vari X III 3.5 x10 and 100 rounds of ammo reloading dies and the extra bullets etc the fellow had...and think I have run up on a Win 348 Lever gun.

I'm not serious bout doing this for a livin!!!!!Luck can't last forever. Col
is a high turnover state. The bulk of newbies come here with great dreams...
most leave with the shirt on the back! They simply abandon the stuff they came with! I got lucky, all the guns were in bags in the CJ.(I haven't got guts enough to shoot the AK.......man, that thing is ratty...others were in nice shape) Makarov was a bring back...still had hard grips with the star on em.

Dan there really are people that do that stuff to make a living.Seriously on most you will make out as long as you don't pay too much. I really did do well on them...but if y gotta pay at the dump...it can get expensive...LOL You did great...this time. Now how much ya want for the CJ??
