Coupons!!! "They" have COUPONS!!! ???
No, but the fever continues...
I happened upon a well-used, but nice-functioning Marlin-39a
about a month ago... spent a few hours dis-assembling it and
scrubbing with GunOil and #00 steel wool... and have a nice
"truck gun"... my old-truck ( Toyota FJ40) has a gunrack in the back
and I thought the vintage/used truck would look good with the
"well used" 39a... but the rack has an empty slot... hmmm.
Stopped in a pawn shop today and they had the right companion...
Marlin 30AW (.30-30; budget-model, was 'Glenfield' )... just a little
surface rust in some spots... but not much use... priced-right: $150 !
But... there was a Really-Nice Marlin 336, clean and barely used
without a scratch on it... and the BAD-news is I just barely had enough
money to consider getting both... I asked if there was a Price-break
to get both... she computed a moment and announced a tempting price
that left me enough to ALSO get the really clean .22 Model-60, too !!
So, not only does my old-beat-up 39a now have a BigBrother...
My "gaggle of 60s" grew a notch... and a clean 336, to boot...
Now... where can I find a worn S&W-M&P .38 to compliment this arsenal ?
I won't mention the pristine Winchester-94/30-30 they had priced to sell !!
