Unusual find
« on: January 03, 2011, 01:42:09 AM »
 The Father of one of my employees recently acquired a major collection of antique mlers. I was told that there is 3 Harper's Ferry rifles and 1 is unfired. Also a Colt made for Custer and a pistol that was presented to Roosevelt. This man has receipts for most of the guns totaling over 1million dollars. To make a lss.....His friend whom is a local surgeon fell ill and quit paying his mortgage. The guy up and moved out of his home and left 5 big safes full of antique guns. Now knowing who the man is that has the houseful of weapons and this mans antiques I highly doubt that this is a yarn. He has contacted a lawyer to get direction so he can put these guns up for sale. Talk about a lucky guy!

Having provenance on some of those guns would be the icing on the cake.
Just being lucky to acquire them and the 5 safes full of guns would surely make my day. I'd feel fortunite if I could acquire just one gun, let alone a whole collection.
