Thanks for posting this, I bet that was a fun auction to got to. Did you get lucky with any of those?

Most gun auctions around here have more pick-up trucks parked outside than guns inside. I keep telling myself to NOT go but mostly I still do. I have not bought a gun in a very long time because I don't get caught up in auction fever. Those prices seem about normal. The best auction going right now is the 24/7 auction known as the internet, if you are patient and set a price you will pay, good things come to those that wait.
