Talking to a guy at work today.
He and his brothers went in on a trailer for a hunting shack.
Paid $600 for a old run down hut on wheels.
Org. owner just left it and took off told the land owner he didn't want it.
So it sat for a couple of years till new onwer decided to get rid of it.
Inside was a mess, so he sold the whole kit and kaboodle for $600.
Haul it away with all the TRASH in it!
Well my buddy decided to clean it out.
While pitching the garbage out he found a box with over 500 rounds of 357 cases with a few factory loads mixed in with them.
So he thought there might be a gun somewhere too!
Well he did find a gun still in the holster under a fold out table.


A 7 1/2" COLT SAA!!!!!!!

It was pitted on the ons side from laying in the holster for a few years
BUT!
---a COLT SAA!!!--
No way to find org. owner so He has to keep it.

How lucky can some folks be?
