I went to a Store to get some cartridges

Found out there was a gun store one county over that was selling a fair amount of stuff on a gun auction site. I emailed them and asked if one could pick up and then I found out it was a actual store, and not say, a guy and his basement.

One of my co-workers lives near this store, and I asked if he had been in there, he said it was "Full of Junk" and when I asked later on what he ment, he said it was full of "AKs, and a bunch of eastern european stuff, very few hunting rifles"

Me, I am thinking "HECK YEA!" :D

So I drove over there today to see what they had, thinking that I was going to maybe pick up another Mosin or soemething.

Ended up looking around, and then saw something that cought my eye, a little odd little revolver for $125. when I looked closer it is a Nagant 1895 revolver.

It is for how old it is, in good shape, a few minor minor scratches, and some holster wear, but that is to be expected. the double action trigger pull is heavy but not gritty, surpisingly smooth, and hte single action is sharp and very nice.

I walked out with the Revolver and a couple boxes of ammo (50 rounds a box) for $175 or so. :cool:


O yea, Photos

Other than the good deal you got how was the store otherwise?
Where is it? I'm always looking for some place new to shop.

Not a terrible price and you bought it from a local store which is always a good thing.

It is in Sparta, NC off Osborn rd. (Just past the Landfill on the right) It has a lot of AR-15s, AK clones, Mosins, and and a pair of .50 cals :what: . It is a "mom and pop" type shop. (Husband and wife)

It does NOT have many walnut bolt actions hunting rifles (though they DO have some decent bolt hunting bolt actions, mostly syth stocks) For example they had 5 mosin snipers. The prices are very fair, they also do a lot of online sales. I might go there next month to pick up something else, or some ammo.
