    I used to be familiar with First St Seattle where every other store seemed to be a surplus store. They all had one of those or another. Carbines and BARs, .30 cal...tons of training grenades. Could have bought all the scarce stuff then. 1974, Easter weekend...

    What is it made of? Zinc? That is a valuable piece.

    Thanks a lot for posting this

    You could have at least had the decency to wait until it was over so I couldn't bid on it!

    I've had, and sold, a complete one of these. They're a little too valuable and LARGE for me to hang on to. But this small section isn't worth much more than I just paid (I don't think) and will display very well.

    -Ryan

    No, I'm not that "dingy." I understand what mechanical platforms can support different cartridges. And it's Oregon. A state of this union.

    Is that the same as, "you understand what gun can shoot a different bullet " ?
    Yea, I did misspell that, and I guess it's still a part of the union, even though you guy's from Oregon sure talk funny.
