I've found guns in odd places...

My wife's cousin passed away a little over a year ago. He was really into guns and reloading before he got sick. I guess, over the years, he had over 300 handguns/rifles:eek:. He would buy a gun, "play" with it, sell it, get another and repeat.

Anyway, after he passed his sister asked me to come over and make sure the firearms were unloaded. I was like a kid in a Candy Store! She pulls a duffle bag out of a closet with handguns in it. HOLY ....! Inside were a couple .357 Magnums, 2-3 .22 semi-autos, a 2-3 .22 revolvers, a couple .38 specials and a few other semi-autos and revolvers. (I can't remember the calibers). I'm speechless!

She tells me there are some rifles in the closet too. I look in........ I see a banana clip!:what: I pull out a beautiful, and loaded, AK-47. A Mauser actioned .270, and a NIB stainless Marlin .22mag. WOW!

Later on, I was looking for some Tax stuff in a filing cabinet. I get to the back of a drawer and find a couple boxes. I open them..... OMG! A NIB Colt Python .357 and a NIB Colt Anaconda .44 Mag! While packing up his reloading supplies I found a couple T/C Contenders in 30-30 and 30-06 and a beat up .22 semi-auto.

And lastly, I moved a box of arrows and leaning in the corner I find this...

The only thing she gave to me was the "Baby Mosin":eek:. (Yes, it's Legal)
She was supposed to give me the AK also but she ended up selling it too:fire::cuss::banghead:.
 
Found an old Daisy BB gun in the ditch behind my house the other day. Found another one in some "woods" behind a friend's house after he moved out, new neighbors had a kid my age so of course I was over there. Anyways, his uncle said it was a weedeater but I've never seen a weedeater with a trigger, trigger gaurd, sights, barrel............you get the point.
 
So would'nt the 1911 still belong to the woman whos yard you were cleaning? or did you just keep it?

she didn't want it. she was a funny old woman. i still remember to this day her telling me-"that thang don' work, why would i wanna gun tha don, work!"

the thing is so rusted that you can't even rack the slide. it is almost like it is welded shut!
