I was off work today and the town I live in was having village wide Garage sales. A guy stopped by and we got to talking, he said he just bought what he thought was a military rifle a few blocks down. I asked him if I could see it.
He pulled out a real nice Remington 1903A3, looked to be original finish, original barrel , correct stock , I checked it with my muzzle gauge and meaured less than 1
I asked him what he paid and he said $200 !!! I had to be honest with him and told him he stole it and said he could easily get 4 times his money . 1903A3's arent my thing but I offered $500 cash but he declined . He had no idea what he had
I never find deals like this at Garbage Sales!!!

I guess you shouldn't have told him it was worth $800.00 and then only offer him $500.00.

Naw, I'm glad he got it for what he did.
