just so i dont get anymore PM's from a$$holes.......i didnt take advantage of an old lady.........she was going to give it to police to be destroyed..gee , i guess im sorry for saving it gman70

For the record I did not send the PM.:bash: I will give you a hard time in front of everyone else though! Sweet Gun!!!!

Philly,
I've done the same and tried forcing extra $$ at the previous owner.
One WWII vet wouldn't take a dime for a carbine I got from him.
His son in Iraq was wounded and ended up paralyzed from the hips down.
He had only 7 days left in country, his gunner and driver were both killed. The driver had only been in country for 7 days.

Our crew helped to build and paint his son's new home. Custom built for him being confined to a wheelchair.
What goes around comes around.
Mow her lawn and help shovel the snow.
She'll appreciate that.
Only you know the real situation.
Good save buddy !!

Congrats,
Charlie

my friend was a philly cop who was killed in iraq by a roadside bomb, i give back also, i organized a motorcycle run with his old partner, to get money for a scholorship in his name


no curt i wasnt talking about you, someone called gman70

Phillydude, If she gave it to the police she probably wouldn't get anything for it and it would be gone. You saved it and she got $200.00 more than if she turned it in. You did right by her and it.....Frank

thanks frank, did you get my PM?

i did the foil trick that i learned on here, it doesnt have a lined out underwood, but there are grind marks and what appears to be a faint "U" where underwood would have been, is this a re-stamp? is it rare?
