well a local pawn shop was having a gun auction today... guns were going VERY VERY cheap..... 120 guns were supposed to be auctioned, but after about 50 the auctioneer who was also an employee of the place stopped the auction. guns were selling for $25. no kidding.. remington 870s and mossberg 500s were goin for anywhere from $60-100. i think the highest selling gun was an sks that was scoped and had a tactical stock sold for like $140.... i got out of there with a marlin 22 mag( i already have one similiar) but it was $45. i did end up with my 1st Mosin Nagant. after the auction i went in to pay and asked the guy about it. he told me $90 so i snatched it up. its a russian made in 1945 M44. its in excellent shape with matching numbers and sling. they had another go in the auction i think for around 50 but it was kinda beat up. im pretty new to these, and made the purchase mainly from reading about them here on thr. i will clean them up and try to get some pics later.
