The auction from hell is tomorrow and I'm going to subject myself to it one last time. If it turns into its usual debacle, I'm done...................At least until next month. No, I think I'm really done.
In any case, I inspected them today and there is one which fits my needs/desires: A type 38 with mum that is dirty, rusty, and gooed up so much it doesn't work. It looks restorable. Rust is a little more than I like, especially on the barrel but it doesn't look pitted. Stock looks pretty decent. Bore does not look pitted but is dark. Condition is such that no one should be willing to bid it high............In a normal auction, but here, I'm not holding my breath.
Couple of Swissrifles I'd like to bring home too but I know those will go for $150 more than they are worth at minimum, they are in good condition and have their bayonets. All are selling early so I won't have to waste the entire day there which is good.
