Antique firearms do turn up in unexpected places. Many years ago we stopped at a motel someplace in Oregon, that had a gun room in the back of the lobby, that as I recall were for sale. I identified several nice Civil War rifled muskets cal.-.58 among the many long arms in the racks, that I remember being priced at $35.00 each.

Restaurant south of San Diego (no not that far south) had on display rifles, shotguns, and pistols marked to Wells Fargo & Co. One Colt M1873 pistol on display, with the oddest patina, had been recovered from a bucket of molasses.
