Hasn't been too bad of a weekend, I liberated three firearms from the hands of some goobers at three different yard sales. Most people don't put guns on the yard sale tables and when they do, they're over-priced. That's why I ask at every garage sale if they have any guns...
The one in the foreground is a 1970's Stevens single-shot .410 shotgun. I got it for $20...
The one in the middle is a 1907 Stevens Model 522 12 gauge trap model. It's made from a Browning patent. The guy said his wife knocked it off the shelf a couple years ago and broke the stock. He couldn't find the rest of the stock and I gave $80 for it. I'm waiting for someone to post a stock for it on Ebay or I might purchase an unfinished stock for it for $100...
...the broken piece of stock that was still attached to the receiver...
The best find though, was the 1944 Inland General Motors Division M1 carbine. The metal parts are all original and untouched, but some goober decided to put a sport stock on it, probably back in the 60's. I got it for $75. I know what you're thinking: "How can you sleep at nights?"
