Buffalow Red · July 29, 2008, 04:38:05 PM

picked up a 51 navy brass 44 cal in a pawn shop last week it had been fired on 4 cly's the other 2 still had fired caps on but didnt go off then the guy pawns it & didnt come back.
when i walked in the pawn owner said hes been waiting on me to drop(what a pal) by as he was embaresed to put this out & had it under the counter $30. & it was mine . 2 new caps & the 2 loads went bang & then i started cleaning the corrosion off anyway used it last weekend at our local match works great even with .451 balls

A diamond in the rough. It's worth $30 just in parts.
