My brother won a John Deer gun safe (25 gun safe) in a Volunteer Fire Dept raffle. He really didn't need it as bad as he needed the cash, so he asked me to find him a buyer at 1/2 price. I called my good friend and offered it to him, he quickly accepted. We went after it today in my truck with my friend buying the gas and lunch, 500 mile round trip. I called my guys and had them meet us at his house to help unload it and get it in the house. When I asked him where he wanted it, he said at my house. What? It's yours. You can't do that! I already have, I knew what I was going to do with it when you first mentioned it.
I am overwhelemed and humbled. We have been good friends for 16 years. I was looking at the collection of guns in our house last night and thought that I really needed the safe myself, but couldn't afford it right now. Wow! He's got house repairs, reloads, etc. coming for a while. DALE

I bet if you stack them right you can get 30 or so in there [smilie=1:
Now you need to start buying molds for calibers you don't own.

Awesome! You must be a good friend to him. I'm reasonably sure that he feels you've already done enough house repairs, reloads, etc. Great to hear that karma comes back to people.
