Picked up a like new 20 gauge Stevens 311A. Beautiful stocks and case colors. Double triggers and extractors.
28" barrels choked Mod and Full. Locks tight like a safe.
I need it, like I need a hole in my head! But damn! There it was!
I also picked up a Winchester Model 52 Target Rifle with Scope Blocks, leather cheek rest, and Unertl aluminum pistol grip.
Not sure why, but again, there it was!

    Going to one Saturday,, I KNOW they all will go much more than expected BUT ,there is a couple or three military guns than MAYBE I can sneak up on.[?]
    Did the prices seem inline with todays market? or high- lower?

    I've been to several over the years but with auction premiums and sales tax added to final prices actual deals are few and far between, truthfully I've never bought anything at a live auction....people tend to go nuts.

    The 311 is one of my all time favorites. A great utility gun that if treated right will last a lifetime.

    WOW, I can wish things go that cheap, although like you, I DON'T need anything. But I am a sucker for a deal, we will see.

    buyers premium was 7% for cash or check, tax I believe was 6%.
    So not too bad at all.....
    Grasshopper, what you NEED is a one room shack and a wood stove! What you want is a whole other story![;)][:D]
